Answer:
Since a/2⁽ⁿ ⁺ ¹⁾b < a/2ⁿb, we cannot find a smallest positive rational number because there would always be a number smaller than that number if it were divided by half.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a/b be the rational number in its simplest form. If we divide a/b by 2, we get another rational number a/2b. a/2b < a/b. If we divide a/2b we have a/2b ÷ 2 = a/4b = a/2²b. So, for a given rational number a/b divided by 2, n times, we have our new number c = a/2ⁿb where n ≥ 1
Since 
= a/(2^∞)b = a/b × 1/∞ = a/b × 0 = 0, the sequence converges.
Now for each successive division by 2, a/2⁽ⁿ ⁺ ¹⁾b < a/2ⁿb and
a/2⁽ⁿ ⁺ ¹⁾b/a/2ⁿb = 1/2, so the next number is always half the previous number.
So, we cannot find a smallest positive rational number because there would always be a number smaller than that number if it were divided by half.

Answer:
<h2>The constant growth valuation formula is not appropriate to use unless the company’s growth rate is expected to remain constant in the future.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of a stock can be calculated with the <em>constant growth valuation formula</em>, but it's mandatory that the stock has to have a constant growth, because it depends on this rate. Actually, the present value of a stock is calculated with this formula <em>when it can be assumed that its growth is constant.</em>
On the other hand, if the stock value is zero, if it has no growth at all, then, this formula can't be applied, because this variable will be missing.
If you see the image attached, you're gonna look for <em>'g'</em>, which represents the growth rate.
Answer:
C. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
first expression 5 × (9-3) = 30
second one 45 - 3x
to make it 30 = 30
x should be = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
4(px + 1) = 64
Step 1: Add -4 to both sides.
4px + 4 -4 = 64 + -4
4px = 60
Step 2: Divide both sides by 4p.
<u>4px</u> = <u>60</u>
4p 4p
x = <u>15</u>
p
