Answer:

The first four terms of the series are

(9+3),(\frac97+\frac35),(\frac9{7^2}+\frac3{5^2}),(\frac9{7^3}+\frac3{5^3})

\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac9{7^n}+\frac{3}{5^n} = 14.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Sum of convergent series is also a convergent series.

We know that,

\sum_{k=0}^\infty a(r)^k

If the common ratio of a sequence |r| <1 then it is a convergent series.

The sum of the series is \sum_{k=0}^\infty a(r)^k=\frac{a}{1-r}

Given series,

\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac9{7^n}+\frac{3}{5^n}

=(9+3)+(\frac97+\frac35)+(\frac9{7^2}+\frac3{5^2})+(\frac9{7^3}+\frac3{5^3})+.......

The first four terms of the series are

(9+3),(\frac97+\frac35),(\frac9{7^2}+\frac3{5^2}),(\frac9{7^3}+\frac3{5^3})

Let

S_n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{9}{7^n}    and     t_n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{3}{5^n}

Now for S_n,

S_n=9+\frac97+\frac{9}{7^2}+\frac9{7^3}+.......

    =\sum_{n=0}^\infty9(\frac 17)^n

It is a geometric series.

The common ratio of S_n is \frac17

The sum of the series

S_n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{9}{7^n}

    =\frac{9}{1-\frac17}

    =\frac{9}{\frac67}

    =\frac{9\times 7}{6}

    =10.5

Now for t_n

t_n= 3+\frac35+\frac{3}{5^2}+\frac3{5^3}+.......

    =\sum_{n=0}^\infty3(\frac 15)^n

It is a geometric series.

The common ratio of t_n is \frac15

The sum of the series

t_n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{3}{5^n}

    =\frac{3}{1-\frac15}

    =\frac{3}{\frac45}

    =\frac{3\times 5}{4}

    =3.75

The sum of the series is \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac9{7^n}+\frac{3}{5^n}

                                        = S_n+t_n

                                       =10.5+3.75

                                       =14.25

Desert County has had little rainfall. This table shows the amount of rainfall during the last 3 months.
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

total rainfall during three months :-

\frac{17}{12}  \: or \: 1.41

Explanation :

here's the solution :-

=》rainfall in March =

\frac{1}{4} \:  inches

=》rainfall in April =

\frac{2}{3}  \: inches

=》rainfall in May =

\frac{1}{2}  \: inches

Total rainfall during these three months :-

=》

\frac{1}{4}  +  \frac{2}{3}  +  \frac{1}{2}

=》

\frac{3 + 8 + 6}{12}

=》

\frac{17}{12}

=》

1.41

so, total rainfall during the three months is 1.41 inches

How many solutions does the equation 5x+17=4(3x−1) have?
Stella [2.4K]

<u>Answer:</u>

one solution = 3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x+17=4(3x−1)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x+17=4(3x−1)

5x+17=(4)(3x)+(4)(−1)(Distribute)

5x+17=12x+−4

5x+17=12x−4

Step 2: Subtract 12x from both sides.

5x+17−12x=12x−4−12x

−7x+17=−4

Step 3: Subtract 17 from both sides.

−7x+17−17=−4−17

−7x=−21

Step 4: Divide both sides by -7

-7x/-7 = -21/-7 = 3
