Answer:

First you have to make the values equal....

which is 2^(x-4)=2a^2(x-6).

then since 2 are equal and its x we are looking for.

x-4=2x-12.

x-2x=-12+4.

-x=-8.

x=8.

For the following telescoping series, find a formula for the nth term of the sequence of partial sums

gtnhenbr [62]

I'm guessing the sum is supposed to be

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}$

Split the summand into partial fractions:

$\dfrac1{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac a{5k-1}+\dfrac b{5k+4}$

$1=a(5k+4)+b(5k-1)$

If $k=-\frac45$ , then

$1=b(-4-1)\implies b=-\frac15$

If $k=\frac15$ , then

$1=a(1+4)\implies a=\frac15$

This means

$\dfrac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac2{5k-1}-\dfrac2{5k+4}$

Consider the $n$ th partial sum of the series:

$S_n=2\left(\dfrac14-\dfrac19\right)+2\left(\dfrac19-\dfrac1{14}\right)+2\left(\dfrac1{14}-\dfrac1{19}\right)+\cdots+2\left(\dfrac1{5n-1}-\dfrac1{5n+4}\right)$

The sum telescopes so that

$S_n=\dfrac2{14}-\dfrac2{5n+4}$

and as $n\to\infty$ , the second term vanishes and leaves us with

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac17$

A start-up company is about to market a new computer printer. It decides to gamble by running commercials during the Super Bowl.

V125BC [204]

There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that over 40% of the public recognize its brand name and associate it with computer equipment thus the company should not continue to advertise during the Super Bowls. So No. Hope I helped have a good day !
