You can factor the 32 out of the sum:

\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^\infty 32 \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m-1} = 32\sum_{m=1}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m-1}

We can also change the index as follows

\displaystyle 32\sum_{m=1}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m-1} = 32\sum_{m=0}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m}

Now, we have a theorem that states that the series

\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^\infty a^m

converges if and only if |a|, and in this case we have

\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^\infty a^m = \dfrac{1}{1-a}

This is your case, because you have

|a|=\dfrac{1}{2}

which implies that your series converges, and the value is

\displaystyle 32\sum_{m=0}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m} = 32 \cdot \dfrac{1}{1-\frac{1}{2}} = 32\cdot 2 = 64

A city has a population of 310,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 9%. What will the population be after
Leno4ka [110]

Answer: 644,800

Step-by-step explanation:

This can also be solved using the terms of Arithmetic Progressions.

Let the 13 years be number of terms of the sequences (n)

Therefore ;

T₁₃              = a + ( n - 1 )d , where a = 310,000 and d = 9% of 310,000

9% of 310,000 = 9/100 x 310,000

                        = 27,900

so the common difference (d)

                     d = 27,900

Now substitute for the values  in the formula above and calculate

T₁₃              = 310,000 + ( 13 - 1 ) x 27,900

                  = 310,000 + 12 x 27,900

                  = 310,000 + 334,800

                  = 644,800.

The population after 13 years = 644,800.

Expand each expression. Then simplify the expression.<br><br> 7(5 + 4w) + 6(8w - 3)
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

76w + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

7 ( 5 + 4w ) + 6 ( 8w - 3 )

= 7 ( 5 ) + 7 ( 4w ) + 6 ( 8w ) - 6 ( 3 )

= 35 + 28w + 48w - 18

= 28w + 48w + 35 - 18

= 76w + 17
