Answer:

  • an = 2·(4/5)^(n-1)
  • 2, 8/5, 32/25, 128/125

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an infinite geometric series is ...

  S = a1/(1 -r)

where r is the common ratio. The sum will only exist if |r| < 1.

The problem statement tells us S = 10 and a1 = 2, so we have ...

  10 = 2/(1 -r)

  r = 1 -2/10 = 4/5

So the n-th term of the series is ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

  an = 2·(4/5)^(n-1)

For values of n = 1 to 4, the terms are ...

  2, 8/5, 32/25, 128/125

Answer:

height of b = 280

Step-by-step explanation:

candle b has a height of 280 - 5t, when it comes out of the mold then t=0 so the initial height of b is 280

candle b's height drops by 5 every hour (that's what the -5t part means)

candle a started at 216 and dropped to 192 in 3 hours, so it dropped by 24 in 3 hours so it drops 8 each hour

so candle b starts out taller (280 v. 216) and candle b burns slower (a at 8 per hour and b at 5 per hour), so b will never 'catch up' with a... candle a will be burned out while candle b is still burning

Roundup Racquets restrings tennis racquets for $22. If the store restrings 20 racquets each month, what is the monthly revenue f
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The revenue would be $ 440

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the correct complete question is,

"Roundup Rackets restrings a tennis racket for $22. If the store restrings 20 rackets each month, what is the monthly revenue from restringing rackets."

Thus,

The price for restrings each tennis racket = $ 22,

Number of rackets re stringed in a month = 20,

Hence, the monthly revenue = price of restrings each tennis racket × number of rackets re stringed

= 22 × 20

= $ 440
