You plug 8 into where n is so it's 8-5
8-5= 3 so the answer is A

The awnser is A because N=8 so it's 8 - 5 = 3

F(x)=|x-5|+2 Evaluate f(3). A.) 10 B.) 0 C.) 4 D.) 6

Talja [164]

F(x)=|x-5|+2
plug it in

so f(3)
f3)=|3-5|+2
solve whats inside first
|-2|+2
since its absolute value its actually positive
2+2
4

Your answer is C.) 4

I need help with this problem from the calculus portion on my ACT prep guide

Given a series, the ratio test implies finding the following limit:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\rvert=r$

If r<1 then the series converges, if r>1 the series diverges and if r=1 the test is inconclusive and we can't assure if the series converges or diverges. So let's see the terms in this limit:

$\begin{gathered} a_n=\frac{2^n}{n5^{n+1}} \\ a_{n+1}=\frac{2^{n+1}}{(n+1)5^{n+2}} \end{gathered}$

Then the limit is:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{n5^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{2^{n+1}}{\mleft(n+1\mright)5^{n+2}}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^{n+1}}{5^{n+2}}\rvert$

We can simplify the expressions inside the absolute value:

$\begin{gathered} \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^{n+1}}{5^{n+2}}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^n\cdot2}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^n\cdot5}{5^n\cdot5\cdot5}\rvert \\ \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^n\cdot2}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^n\cdot5}{5^n\cdot5\cdot5}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert2\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{1}{5}\rvert \\ \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert2\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{1}{5}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\rvert \end{gathered}$

Since none of the terms inside the absolute value can be negative we can write this with out it:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}$

Now let's re-writte n/(n+1):

$\frac{n}{n+1}=\frac{n}{n\cdot(1+\frac{1}{n})}=\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{n}}$

Then the limit we have to find is:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}=\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{n}}$

Note that the limit of 1/n when n tends to infinite is 0 so we get:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{n}}=\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{1+0}=\frac{2}{5}=0.4$

So from the test ratio r=0.4 and the series converges. Then the answer is the second option.
