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>

Answer: I don’t know if you want the area or just y but anyways, y= 9

Step-by-step explanation:


The question requires a scale factor (since both triangles have similar sides (an equal ratio is a good way to think about it) the 10cm side of the large triangle is proportionate to the same side of the smaller triangle.

In other words to get that scale factor (how much one shape is bigger than the other) we need to divide the 10 by 4 (you need to use the same side you can’t do 10/6 because they are completely different sides) 10/4 = 2.5

Now we know the larger triangle is 2.5 times bigger than the smaller triangle. This means the smaller triangle is 2.5 times smaller than the big triangle. So to find the base of the larger triangle we use a similar method we used to find the scale factor (but not divide multiply because when you want to find the bigger you multiply when you want to find scale factor/ smaller you divide) so 6* 2.5= 15 and since y is not the entire base only a part of it, we can do 15(which is the entire length of the big triangle base) - 6 = 9

Therefore y=9

Find the length of a third side of a right triangle
ANTONII [103]
The sides of a right triangle can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

c is the hypotenuse (the longest side) of the right triangle and a and b are the two other legs. Knowing any two sides of the right triangle, you can find the other using this formula.

Hope this helps!

What are the zeros of this function?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the zeroes of a function basically mean when y = 0, so basically the x-intercept(s)

in this case, the zeroes are 3 and 6
