Answer:

A and B.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want to select the fractions that equal -1/7.

Let's go through each of the answer choices.

A is -1/7, the exact same.

A is correct.

B is 1/-7.

We can move the negative to the top.

So, 1/-7 is equivalent to -1/7.

B is also correct.

C is 1/7

There are no negatives whatsoever.

C is not correct.

We have -1/-7.

Again, move the negative to the top. We will have:

-(-1)/7

The two negatives cancel:

=1/7.

So, D is not correct.

Our answers are A and B.

The radius of a sphere is multiplied by 1/7. What effect does this have on the volume of the sphere?

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The new volume is 1/343 of the old volume or the ratio of the new volume to the old volume is 1 to 343

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to state the effect of multiplying the radius of a sphere by 1/7 on the volume.

Mathematically, the volume of a sphere V can be calculated using the formula

V = 4/3 * π * r^3

Now multiplying the radius by 1/7, the new radius will be r/7

Thus the new volume here will be

V2 = 4/3 * π * (r/7)^3

V2 = 4/3 * π * (r^3)/343

Thus we can conclude that the value of the volume will be decreased by a factor of 343

Meaning the ratio of the old volume to the new volume will be 1 to 343

I need help.. i really want to go sleep.. thank you so much...

Answer:

1) True 2) False

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

To verify that the above equality is true or false:

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{0+3}+\frac{1}{1+3}+\frac{1}{2+3}+\frac{1}{3+3}+\frac{1}{4+3}+\frac{1}{5+3}+\frac{1}{6+3}+\frac{1}{7+3}+\frac{1}{8+3}$ $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$

Now find $\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$

Comparing the two series we get,

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$ so the given equality is true.

2) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Verify the above equality is true or false

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\frac{3(0)+3}{0+6}+\frac{3(1)+3}{1+6}+\frac{3(2)+3}{2+6}+\frac{3(3)+4}{3+6}+\frac{3(4)+3}{4+6}$

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{6}{7}+\frac{9}{8}+\frac{12}{8}+\frac{15}{10}$

now find $\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}=\frac{3(0)}{0+5}+\frac{3(1)}{1+5}+\frac{3(2)}{2+5}+\frac{3(3)}{3+5}$

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{6}{7}+\frac{9}{8}$

Comparing the series we get that the given equality is false.

ie, $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}\neq\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$
