Answer:

18 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Just simple fraction addition.

17 1/4+ 7/8

Make common denominator

17 2/8+7/8

17 9/8 which is 18 1/8

Consider the sequence {an}={3n+13n−3n3n+1}. Graph this sequence and use your graph to help you answer the following questions.
Fantom [35]

Part 1: You can simplify a_n to

\dfrac{3n+1}{3n}-\dfrac{3n}{3n+1} = \dfrac1{3n}+\dfrac1{3n+1}

Presumably, the sequence starts at <em>n</em> = 1. It's easy to see that the sequence is strictly decreasing, since larger values of <em>n</em> make either fraction smaller.

(a) So, the sequence is bounded above by its first value,

|a_n| \le a_1 = \dfrac13+\dfrac14 = \boxed{\dfrac7{12}}

(b) And because both fractions in a_n converge to 0, while remaining positive for any natural number <em>n</em>, the sequence is bounded below by 0,

|a_n| \ge \boxed{0}

(c) Finally, a_n is bounded above and below, so it is a bounded sequence.

Part 2: Yes, a_n is monotonic and strictly decreasing.

Part 3:

(a) I assume the choices are between convergent and divergent. Any monotonic and bounded sequence is convergent.

(b) Since a_n is decreasing and bounded below by 0, its limit as <em>n</em> goes to infinity is 0.

Part 4:

(a) We have

\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{10n^2+1}{n^2+n} = \lim_{n\to\infty}10+\frac1{n^2}}{1+\frac1n} = 10

and the (-1)ⁿ makes this limit alternate between -10 and 10. So the sequence is bounded but clearly not monotonic, and hence divergent.

(b) Taking the limit gives

\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{10n^3+1}{n^2+n} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{10+\frac1{n^3}}{\frac1n+\frac1{n^2}} = \infty

so the sequence is unbounded and divergent. It should also be easy to see or establish that the sequence is strictly increasing and thus monotonic.

For the next three, I'm guessing the options here are something to the effect of "does", "may", or "does not".

(c) may : the sequence in (a) demonstrates that a bounded sequence need not converge

(d) does not : a monotonic sequence has to be bounded in order to converge, otherwise it grows to ± infinity.

(e) does : this is true and is known as the monotone convergence theorem.

Three balls are packaged in a cylindrical container as shown below. The balls just touch the top, bottom, and sides of the cylin
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

3,451 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The ball is a sphere.

Formula for finding the volume of a sphere = ⁴/3*πr³

Volume of the 3 balls = 3(⁴/3*πr³)

Where,

radius (r) = ½ of diameter = ½(13) = 6.5 cm

Plug in the values into the formula:

Volume of the 3 balls = 3(⁴/3*π*6.5³)

= 4*π*274.625

= 3,451.03953 ≈ 3,451 cm³

You and your friend drive toward each other. The equation 50h = 190 – 45h represents the number h of hours until you and your fr
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

C. 2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

50h= 190-45h

50h + 45h = 190

95h = 190.

190÷95= 2h
