What's the question? Do you want to prove these statements?
Answer:
a) -7/9
b) 16 / (n² + 15n + 56)
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
When n = 1, there is only one term in the series, so a₁ = s₁.
a₁ = (1 − 8) / (1 + 8)
a₁ = -7/9
The sum of the first n terms is equal to the sum of the first n−1 terms plus the nth term.
sₙ = sₙ₋₁ + aₙ
(n − 8) / (n + 8) = (n − 1 − 8) / (n − 1 + 8) + aₙ
(n − 8) / (n + 8) = (n − 9) / (n + 7) + aₙ
aₙ = (n − 8) / (n + 8) − (n − 9) / (n + 7)
If you wish, you can simplify by finding the common denominator.
aₙ = [(n − 8) (n + 7) − (n − 9) (n + 8)] / [(n + 8) (n + 7)]
aₙ = [n² − n − 56 − (n² − n − 72)] / (n² + 15n + 56)
aₙ = 16 / (n² + 15n + 56)
The infinite sum is:
∑₁°° aₙ = lim(n→∞) sₙ
∑₁°° aₙ = lim(n→∞) (n − 8) / (n + 8)
∑₁°° aₙ = 1
12x - 18 - 4x -2
12x - 4x = 8x (yours 12x - 4x = 8)
-18 - 2 = -20 (yours -18 -1 = 17)
answer:
8x - 20
Answer:
He can make only one batch of cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just by mental math you can say he can make maximum one batch of cookies.
Total sugar = 10 cups
sugar used for lemonade = 2 cups
leftover sugar = 8 cups
For 1 batch of cookie sugar needed = 11/2
which means 5 and 1/2 cups
And he's just left with 8 cups of sugar after lemonade
8 - 5 1/2 = 2 1/2 which is not enough for 2nd batch
That means the maximum number of cookies batches is 1.
Another way to solve it by inequality:
2+Il/2 X <u><</u> 10
11/2 X <u><</u> 8
11X <u><</u> 16
X <u><</u> 1 6/11
So he can make only one batch of cookies.
