Answer:

0.332

Step-by-step explanation:

given series

1/4, 1/16,1/64.1/256

this is geometric series

where common ratio   r is given by

nth term/ (n-1)th term

let the second term is nth term and first term is (n-1)th term

r = 1/16 / (1/4) = 1/4

___________________________________________

sum of series is given by

a (1-r^n)/1-r

where a is first term

n is the number of terms

r is the common ration

___________________________________________

in the given series

1/4, 1/16,1/64.1/256

a = 1/4

r = 1/4

n = 4

thus ,

sum = 1/4(1-(1/4)^4)/ (1-1/4)

sum = 1/4(1-(1/256)/(4-1)/4

sum = 1/4((256-1)/256 / 3/4

1/4 in numerator and denominator gets cancelled

sum =( 255/256*3) = 255/768 = 0.332

Thus, sum of series is 0.332.

8x + 6 - 2x = 34 x= ?
e-lub [12.9K]
8x + 6 - 2x = 34x

Simplify 8x +6 - 2x to 6x + 6:
6x + 6 = 34x

Subtract 6x from both sides:
6 = 34x- 6x

Simplify 34x - 6x to 28x:
6 = 28x

Divide both sides by 28:
\frac{6}{28} = x

Simplify \frac{6}{28} to \frac{3}{14} :
\frac{3}{14} = x

Now switch sides and the answer is:

x = \frac{3}{14}

You are biking at a speed of 18 miles per hour. You are 3 miles behind your friend who is biking at a speed of
labwork [276]

Answer:

12t -3 = 18t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

d = your friends distance in miles

t = time in hrs

Your equation:

d - 3 = 18t (1)

Because you are 3 miles behind your friend

Your Friend's equation:

d = 12t (2)

To find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up with your friend,

Substitute (2) into (1)

d - 3 = 18t

12t - 3 = 18t

Equation to find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up to your friend is 12t - 3 = 18t

Solving the equation

12t - 3 = 18t

Collect like terms

12t - 18t = 3

-6t = 3

t = 3/-6

= -0.5

t = 1/2 hour

Time can not be negative, therefore it will take 1/2 an hour to catch up with your friend
