Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given fraction is

$- \frac{3}{4} m - \frac{1}{2} = 2 + \frac{1}{4}m$

To clear the fraction, we need to multiply through by the LCM of the denominators.The denominators are 4, 2 and an invisible 1.

The LCM of {4,2,1} is 4.

We multiply through by 2 to obtain:

$- \frac{3}{4} m \times 4 - \frac{1}{2} \times 4 = 2 \times 4 + \frac{1}{4} m \times 4$

This simplifies to

$- 3m - 2 = 8 + m$

The fraction is now eliminated. The required number is 4

You planted 488 acres of corn last season. you sold all your corn: 8,120 bushels in August and 64,100 bushels in September. what

Paladinen [302]

The yield per acre will be given by:
[total amount of bushels sold]/[area of the field]
Total amount sold=64100+8120=72220
area=488 acres
thus
72220/488
=147.992~148 bushels per acre

What is the value of a1 of the geometric series? Sigma-Summation Underscript n = 1 Overscript infinity EndScripts 12 (negative o

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given geometric series is

$\sum_{n = 1}^{ \infty} 12( { - \frac{1}{9} })^{n - 1}$

We want to determine the first term of this geometric series.

Recall that the explicit formula is

$a_{n} = 12( { - \frac{1}{9} })^{n - 1}$

To find the first term, we put n=1 to get:

$a_{1} = 12( { - \frac{1}{9} })^{1 - 1}$

This gives us:

$a_{1} = 12( { - \frac{1}{9} })^{0}$

$a_{1} = 12(1) = 12$

Therefore the first term is 12
