As x approaches 5
hmm, we can divide the (x-5) from top and bottom to get x-5
if we input 5 for x we get
5-5=0
it approaches 0 as x approaches 5
Answer:
Option A. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
First term (a) = –3
Common ratio (r) = 6
Sum of series (Sₙ) = –4665
Number of term (n) =?
The number of terms in the series can be obtained as follow:
Sₙ = a[rⁿ – 1] / r – 1
–4665 = –3[6ⁿ – 1] / 6 – 1
–4665 = –3[6ⁿ – 1] / 5
Cross multiply
–4665 × 5 = –3[6ⁿ – 1]
–23325 = –3[6ⁿ – 1]
Divide both side by –3
–23325 / –3 = 6ⁿ – 1
7775 = 6ⁿ – 1
Collect like terms
7775 + 1 = 6ⁿ
7776 = 6ⁿ
Express 7776 in index form with 6 as the base
6⁵ = 6ⁿ
n = 5
Thus, the number of terms in the geometric series is 5.
Answer:
f(5) = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
You look on the x-axis for 5 because f(5) means let x = 5. Then go down to the graph (the red zig-zaggy line) At the red line (you're still directly under the 5) look over to the y-axis to find the value. That's your answer. It is -2. The point (5, -2) is on the red graph.
f(5) = -2
