Answer:
(a) |s - x| ≤ 3/16
(b) 4 15/16 ≤ x ≤ 5 5/16
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The absolute value of the difference from spec must be no greater than than the allowed tolerance:
|s - x| ≤ 3/16
__
(b) Put 5 1/8 for s in the above equation and solve.
|5 1/8 - x| ≤ 3/16
-3/16 ≤ 5 1/8 -x ≤ 3/16
3/16 ≥ x -5 1/8 ≥ -3/16 . . . . multiply by -1 to get positive x
5 5/16 ≥ x ≥ 4 15/16 . . . . . . add 5 1/8
Pieces may be between 4 15/16 and 5 5/16 inches in length.
Answer:
∑ (-1)ⁿ⁺³ 1 / (n^½)
∑ (-1)³ⁿ 1 / (8 + n)
Step-by-step explanation:
If ∑ an is convergent and ∑│an│is divergent, then the series is conditionally convergent.
Option A: (-1)²ⁿ is always +1. So an =│an│and both series converge (absolutely convergent).
Option B: bn = 1 / (n^⁹/₈) is a p series with p > 1, so both an and │an│converge (absolutely convergent).
Option C: an = 1 / n³ isn't an alternating series. So an =│an│and both series converge (p series with p > 1). This is absolutely convergent.
Option D: bn = 1 / (n^½) is a p series with p = ½, so this is a diverging series. Since lim(n→∞) bn = 0, and bn is decreasing, then an converges. So this is conditionally convergent.
Option E: (-1)³ⁿ = (-1)²ⁿ (-1)ⁿ = (-1)ⁿ, so this is an alternating series. bn = 1 / (8 + n), which diverges. Since lim(n→∞) bn = 0, and bn is decreasing, then an converges. So this is conditionally convergent.
First do parenthesis the multiplication then add
9+15=24*3=72+2=74 :)hope this helps
