We know that
a1=1
a2=3
a3=9
a2/a1=3/1----> 3
a3/a2=9/3----> 3
<span>common ration r is equal to 3
number of terms n  is 12

The </span><span>Sum of geometric series is given by the formula
</span>Sum=a1*[1-r<span>^n]/[1-r]
</span>Sum=1*[1-3^12]/[1-3]-----> Sum=[1-3^12]/[1-3]----> [3^12-1]/[3-1]
<span>Sum=531440/2-----> 265720

the answer is
265720

Can you do this 3(2x-6)-7x+4?
Serjik [45]
3(2x-6)-7x+4
3*2x=6x. 3*-6=-18
-7x+6x=-1x. -18+4=-14
-1x/-1=x. -14/-1=14
X=14

20 POINT!!!!!!!11PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

14 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

V=(4/3)πr³

1372π(1/3)=(4/3)πr³

1372=4r³        <em>(cancel out the pi and multiply both sides by 3)</em>

r³=343

r=7

Diameter is twice the radius = 2(7) = 14

On a piece of paper, use a protractor and a ruler to construct △ABC with AB=4 in., AC=4 in., and m∠A=60°.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

BC 4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps for construction;

  • Using a ruler draw line AB 4 inches  and label the end points A and B
  • At point A , using a protractor, measure angle 60° and mark with point. Draw a line from A passing through this point extending to a length of 4 inches
  • Mark that point C.
  • Using the ruler, join point C and B and measure BC.

From calculation, length BC can be found by the formula;

BC=\sqrt{a^2+b^2-2*a*b*cosA}------where a=b=4 in , cos A = cos 60°

BC=\sqrt{4^2+4^2-2*4*4*cos60}

BC = 4 in
