Answer:

5/6w=2/3

5/6(4/5)=2/3

20/30=2/3

20/30=10/15=2/3=2/3

Proof:

5/6w=2/3

6/5*5/6w=2/3*6/5

30/30w=2/3*6/5

w=12/15=4/5

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤

Identify whether the series sigma notation infinity i=1 15(4)^i-1 is a convergent or divergent geometric series and find the sum

const2013 [10]

Answer: The correct option is

(d) This is a divergent geometric series. The sum cannot be found.

Step-by-step explanation: The given infinite geometric series is

$S=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}15(4)^{i-1}.$

We are to identify whether the given geometric series is convergent or divergent. If convergent, we are to find the sum of the series.

We have the D' Alembert's ratio test, states as follows:

Let, $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}a_i$ is an infinite series, with complex coefficients $a_i$ and we consider the following limit:

$L=\lim_{i\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{a_{i+1}}{a_i}.$

Then, the series will be convergent if L < 1 and divergent if L > 1.

For the given series, we have

$a_i=15(4)^{i-1},\\\\a_{i+1}=15(4)^i.$

So, the limit is given by

$L\\\\\\=\lim_{i\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{a_{i+1}}{a_i}\\\\\\=\lim_{i\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{15(4)^i}{15(4)^{i-1}}\\\\\\=\lim_{i\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{15(4)^i}{15(4)^{i}4^{-1}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4^{-1}}\\\\=4>1.$

Therefore, L >1, and so the given series is divergent and hence we cannot find the sum.

Thuds, (d) is the correct option.

What is the x-value in the solution to this system of linear equations?

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-variable can be eliminated by adding 3 times the first equation to the second:

3(2x -y) +(x +3y) = 3(11) +(-5)

7x = 28 . . . . simplify

x = 4 . . . . . . . divide by 7

_____

Using Cramer's Rule, you can also find the x-value. The math is not so different.

x = ((-1)(-5) -(3)(11))/(-1(1) -3(2)) = -28/-7 = 4

If a point P(–1, –1) is reflected across the line y = –2, what are the coordinates of its reflection image?

Ksivusya [100]

Since the line of refrection is a horizontal line, the x-coordinate of the image will be the same as the x-coordinate of the point P(-1, -1). P(-1, -1) is one unit above the line y = -2, hence the image will be one unit below the line y = -2. Therefore the coordinate of the image is (-1, -3)

\250 doctors from three countries in Europe meeting in a conference to decide whether to approve a new vaccine for the flu. Amon

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

0.683 = 68.3% probability that a randomly chosen doctor is in favor of the vaccine

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen doctor is in favor of the vaccine

75% of 115/250 = 0.46(German).

60% of 65/250 = 0.26(French).

65% of 70/250 = 0.28(Englishmen). So

$p = 0.75*0.46 + 0.6*0.26 + 0.65*0.28 = 0.683$

0.683 = 68.3% probability that a randomly chosen doctor is in favor of the vaccine
