Which argument is valid?

1 answer:

8 0

1 - True. If a number is divisible by 12 it's divisible by 6 and thus by 3

2 - False. A rhombus needn't have square angles

3 - False. the second proposition is unrelated to the first one, and doesn't allow us to deduce that cats have fur.

4 - False - We cannot link the first and second proposition in any way to make the third

For the following telescoping series, find a formula for the nth term of the sequence of partial sums

gtnhenbr [62]

I'm guessing the sum is supposed to be

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}$

Split the summand into partial fractions:

$\dfrac1{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac a{5k-1}+\dfrac b{5k+4}$

$1=a(5k+4)+b(5k-1)$

If $k=-\frac45$ , then

$1=b(-4-1)\implies b=-\frac15$

If $k=\frac15$ , then

$1=a(1+4)\implies a=\frac15$

This means

$\dfrac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac2{5k-1}-\dfrac2{5k+4}$

Consider the $n$ th partial sum of the series:

$S_n=2\left(\dfrac14-\dfrac19\right)+2\left(\dfrac19-\dfrac1{14}\right)+2\left(\dfrac1{14}-\dfrac1{19}\right)+\cdots+2\left(\dfrac1{5n-1}-\dfrac1{5n+4}\right)$

The sum telescopes so that

$S_n=\dfrac2{14}-\dfrac2{5n+4}$

and as $n\to\infty$ , the second term vanishes and leaves us with

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac17$

In the figure, the measure of angle 9 is 80 degrees and the measure of angle 5 is 68. Find the measure of each angle.

murzikaleks [220]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<9 = 80°,

m<5 = 68°

Lines w and v are parallel to each other.

m<1 = m<9 (corresponding angles theorem)

m<1 = 80°

m<2 + m<1 = 180° (linear pair)

m<2 + 80° = 180° (substitution)

m<2 = 180° - 80°

m<2 = 100°

m<3 = m<1 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<3 = 80°

m<4 = m<2 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<4 = 100°

m<6 + m<5 = 180° (linear pair)

m<6 + 68° = 180° (substitution)

m<6 = 180° - 68°

m<6 = 112°

m<7 = m<5 (vertical angles)

m<7 = 68°

m<8 = m<6 (vertical angles)

m<8 = 112°

m<10 = m<2 (corresponding angles)

m<10 = 100°

m<11 = m<9 (vertical angles)

m<7 = 80°

m<12 = m<10 (vertical angles)

m<12 = 100°

m<13 = m<5 (corresponding angles)

m<13 = 68°

m<14 = m<6 (corresponding angles)

m<14 = 112°

m<15 = m<13 (vertical angles)

m<15 = 68°

m<16 = m<14 (vertical angles)

m<16 = 112°
