Answer:

A) 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The given geometric series is {12, 6, 3, 3 /2 , 3 /4 , 3/ 8 ,...}

Each term can be represented as a product of its previous term and \[\frac{1}{2}\]

The generic term of the series can be represented as the product of the first term 12 and \[\frac{1}{2}^{n-1}\] where n is the index of the term in the series.

The sum to infinity of such a series is given by the following formula:

\[\frac{term1}{1-ratio}\]

Substituting and calculating:

\[\frac{12}{1-\frac{1}{2}}\]

=\[\frac{12}{\frac{1}{2}}\]

=12*2 = 24

The area of a rectangular painting is 5/8 square yard. The width is 3/4 yard. What is the length of the painting?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>\frac{5}{6}  \:  \:  \:  \: yards \\</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = length × width

Since we are finding the length of the rectangle

length =  \frac{area}{width}  \\

From the question

area = 5/8 square yards

width = 3/4 yard

So we have

length =  \frac{5}{8}  \div  \frac{3}{4}  \\  =  \frac{5}{8}  \times  \frac{4}{3}  \\  =  \frac{5}{2}  \times  \frac{1}{3}

We have the final answer as

\frac{5}{6}  \:  \:  \:  \: yards \\

Hope this helps you
