This series converges.

S=\dfrac14+\dfrac3{16}+\dfrac1{64}+\dfrac3{256}+\dfrac1{1024}+\cdots

S=\left(\dfrac34+\dfrac3{16}+\dfrac3{64}+\dfrac3{256}+\dfrac3{1024}+\cdots\right)-\left(\dfrac12+\dfrac1{32}+\dfrac1{512}+\cdots\right)

S=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac3{4^n}-\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac1{2^{4n+1}}

Both component series are geometric with ratios less than 1, so they both converge.

\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac3{4^n}=1

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac1{2^{4n+1}}=\frac12\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac1{16^n}=\frac8{15}

So we have

S=\dfrac7{15}

Solve the following equations using any method. Show your work and check your
Gemiola [76]

a) The solution for the equation 2x + 16 = 5x + 4  is x=4.

b) The solution for the equation 3x − 5 = 2x + 14 is x=19.

c) The solution for the equation 5x − 5 = x + 15 is x=5.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>a) The given equation is  2x + 16 = 5x + 4 </u>

  • From the above equation, it can be found that the equation consists of x terms and constant terms.
  • Therefore, bring all the x terms on one side and the constant terms on other side of the equation.
  • This gives the simplified form of the equation to solve for x value.

⇒ 16-4 = 5x-2x

⇒ 12 = 3x

⇒ x = 12/3

⇒ x = 4

The solution for the given equation is x=4.

<u>To check, substitute x=4 in the equation :</u>

2(4) + 16 = 5(4) + 4

8+16 = 20+4

24 = 24

Therefore, the solution x=4 satisfies the equation 2x + 16 = 5x + 4

Similarly,

<u>b) The given equation is 3x − 5 = 2x + 14</u>

⇒ 3x-2x = 14+5

⇒ x = 19

The solution for the given equation is x=19.

<u>To check, substitute x=19 in the equation :</u>

3(19) - 5 = 2(19) + 14

57-16 = 38+14

52 = 52

Therefore, the solution x=19 satisfies the equation 3x − 5 = 2x + 14

Similarly,

<u>c) The given equation is 5x − 5 = x + 15</u>

⇒ 5x-x = 15+5

⇒ 4x = 20

⇒ x = 20/4

⇒ x = 5

The solution for the given equation is x=5.

<u>To check, substitute x=5 in the equation :</u>

5(5) - 5 = 5 + 15

25-5 = 20

20 = 20

Therefore, the solution x=5 satisfies the equation 5x − 5 = x + 15

A group of 2n people, consisting of n men and n women, are to be independently distributed among m rooms. Each woman chooses roo
vfiekz [6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that

X_i = \left \{ {{1, If , Ith, room, has,exactly, 1,man, and , 1,woman } \atop {0, othewise} \right.

hence,

x = x_1 + x_2+....+x_m

now,

E(x) = E(x_1+x_2+---+x_m)\\\\E(x)=E(x_1)+E(x_2)+---+E(x_m)

attached below is the complete solution

The GCF is the largest number that can go into both the terms. Since "y" isn't in both terms, it can't include y. x, however, is, so we know our GCF has x in it. What's the largest whole number that can go into 32 and 18? 2. Your GCF is <span>2x.

Determine whether the forces in the pair are pulling at right angles to each other.
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

C) 3.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the other side be x.

Using Pythagoras theorem for right-angled triangle,

4.2^2=2.9^2+x^2

or,x^2=4.2^2-2.9^2

or,x^2=9.23

or,x=√9.23=3.0 units
