.8 repeating. I believe is this answer.
Answer
Step-by-step explanation
You would use the pythagorean theorem for this problem. The point on the y-axis is 5 away from (0,0). The point on the x-axis is 3 away. You would square these, leading from
5+3 to
25+9=
Answer is .
Answer:
r = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula
Sum of an infinite geometric series = a / (1 - r)
Givens
Sum = 5*a
a = a
r = ?
Solution
5a = a/(1 - r) Divide both sides by a
5a/a = a / (a * (1 - r) The a's on the right cancel
5 = 1 / (1 - r) Multiply both sides by 1 - r
5*(1 - r) = 1*(1 - r)/(1 - r) The 1 - r s on the right cancel
5*(1 - r) = 1 Remove the brackets.
5 - 5r = 1 Subtract 5 from both sides
5-5 - 5r = 1 - 5 Combine
-5r = - 4 Divide by - 5
r = 4/5
The greatest common factor is 7 .
