The segment with endpoints (0,8) and (−6,0) is dilated to a segment with endpoints (0, 6) and (−4.5,0). What is the scale factor

sergiy2304 [10]

I think it would be 4/3 because when you multiply 8 by 4/3 you get 6 and when you multiply-6 by 4/3 you get -4.5 so

4/3

Write out the first four terms of the series to show how the series starts. Then find the sum of the series or show that it dive

Nostrana [21]

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
