Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first day the population will decrease to 1530, then 1500 the day 2, 1470 day 3, and so on ...

For decrease and get less than 1000 the mold population needs to be reduced in at least 560. The questions turns to be, how many days will it take to reduce the population in 560 spores?

If we divide 560 between 30 it will gives us the answer:

560/30 = 18.667

So, it is need to wait 19 days. In 18 days only 540 spores are reduced. In 19 days 570. We will say 19 days as we are looking (I guess) for an integer number.

Write the sum using summation notation, assuming the suggested pattern continues. 5 - 15 + 45 - 135 + ...
nalin [4]

Answer:

<em>summation of five times negative three to the power of n from n equals zero to infinity</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Summation Notation </u>

It represents the sum of a finite or infinite number of terms. Let's analyze the terms of the given succession:

5-15+45-135+...

If we take 5 as a common factor, we have

5(1-3+9-27+...)

The parentheses contain the alternate sum/subtraction of powers of 3. The odd terms are positive, the even terms are negative, thus the exponent must be n starting from 0 or n-1 starting from 1

The summation is then represented by

\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}5(-3)^n

This corresponds with the option:

<u>summation of five times negative three to the power of n from n equals zero to infinity</u>
