Answer : Explained.


Step-by-step explanation: As given in the question and shown in the attached figure, ΔABC be the large triangular stone that Mei wants to divide into four smaller triangular stepping stones in a pathway.

Let D, E and F be the mid-points of the sides BC, CA and AB respectively. Then, DE, EF and FD are the mid-segments of ΔABC.

Then  , we have

4 × Area of ΔDEF = 4 ×Area of ΔFBD = 4 × ΔAFE = 4 × Area of ΔECD = Area of ΔABC.

Thus, we have

ΔDEF ≅ ΔFBD ≅ ΔAFE ≅ ΔECD.

Thus, in this way, cutting along mid-segments creates four congruent stepping stones.

Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, give the limit.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The given series converges and \lim_{n \to \infty} a_n =0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is 108, -18, 3,...

It is an alternate series. An alternate series is convergent if:

1. The series is decreasing.

2. If the last term (n-th term) of series converges to 0.

<u>Since each next term is less than its preceding term, so it is decreasing.</u>

First term, a = 108

Second term = -18

Common ratio, r = -18/108 = -1/6

General term, aₙ = a*rⁿ = 108*(-1/6)ⁿ

<u>When n increases to infinity, the exponent term will decreases to zero, and last term (n-th term) will converge to 0 as well.</u>

Hence, the given series converges.

Now limit will be: \lim_{n \to \infty} a_n

\lim_{n \to \infty} 108*(-1/6)^n \\= 108*(-1/6)^\infty \\= 108*(1/\infty) \\= 108*0 \\= 0

Hence, \lim_{n \to \infty} a_n =0

Which expressions are equivalent to 3x+3(x+y)3x+3(x+y)3, x, plus, 3, left parenthesis, x, plus, y, right parenthesis ? Choose al
wariber [46]

Answer: Choise A and Choise B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following expression:

3x+3(x+y)

You can simplify it in order to find equivalent expressions.

Appying the Distributive Property, you get:

3x+(3)(x)+(y)(3)=3x+3x+3y

So:

1. If you add the like terms, you get this equivalent expression:

3x+3x+3y=6x+3y

2. But if you factor out 3, you get the following equivalent expression:

3x+3x+3y=3(x+x+y)

Therefore, the expression shown in Choice A and Choise B are equivalents to the expression 3x+3(x+y)
