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

Help with this one because I do not know how to do perpendicular plz put explanation with steps worth 50!
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Therefore, equation of the line that passes through (16,-7) and is perpendicular to the line 2x-3y=12 is 3x+2y=34  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

2x-3y=12  

To Find:  

Equation of line passing through ( 16, -7) and is perpendicular to the line  

2x-3y=12  

Solution:  

2x-3y=12 ...........Given  

\therefore y=\dfrac{2}{3}\times x-4

Comparing with,  

y=mx+c  

Where m =slope  

We get  

Slope = m1 = \dfrac{2}{3}  

We know that for Perpendicular lines have product slopes = -1.

m1\times m2=-1

Substituting m1 we get m2 as

\dfrac{2}{3}\times m2=-1\\\\m2=-\dfrac{3}{2}

Therefore the slope of the required line passing through (16 , -7) will have the slope,

m2=-\dfrac{3}{2}  

Now the equation of line in slope point form given by  

(y-y_{1})=m(x-x_{1})  

Substituting the point (16 , -7) and slope m2 we will get the required equation of the line,  

(y-(-7))=-\dfrac{3}{2}\times (x-16)\\\\2y+14=-3x+48\\3x+2y=34......Equation\ of\ line  

Therefore, equation of the line that passes through (16,-7) and is perpendicular to the line  2x-3y=12 is

3x+2y=34

Of the 50 students in an undergraduate statistics class, 60% send email and/or text messages during any given lecture. They have
sasho [114]

Answer:

0.3 or 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since no innocent student will ever be caught, the probability that a student sends an email and/or text message during a lecture AND gets caught is given by the product of the probability of a student sending a message (60%) by the probability of the professor catching them (50%) :

P = 0.5*0.6 = 0.3

The probability is 0.3 or 30%.
