Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The given geometric series is

\sum_{n = 1}^{ \infty} 12( { -  \frac{1}{9} })^{n - 1}

We want to determine the first term of this geometric series.

Recall that the explicit formula is

a_{n} = 12( { -  \frac{1}{9} })^{n - 1}

To find the first term, we put n=1 to get:

a_{1} = 12( { -  \frac{1}{9} })^{1 - 1}

This gives us:

a_{1} = 12( { -  \frac{1}{9} })^{0}

a_{1} = 12(1) = 12

Therefore the first term is 12

Omar's gas tank is 1/10 full. After he buys 6 gallons of gas, it is 2/5 full. How many gallons can Omar's tank hold?
castortr0y [4]
1/10x + 6 = 2/5x
6 = 2/5x - 1/10x
6 = 4/10x - 1/10x
6 = 3/10x
6 / (3/10) = x
6 * 10/3 = x
60/3 = x
20 = x <=== the gas tank can hold 20 gallons
