If u have a open circle, then the inequality has no equal sign. But if it is a closed circle, the inequality has an equal sign.
Shading to the left means " less then " .
Shading to the right means " greater then " .
(1) u have an open circle on -7 with shading to the left....
x < -7
(2) u have a closed circle on 4.5 with shading to the left....
x < = 4.5 (thats less then or equal)
(3) u have an open circle on -5 with shading to the right...
x > -5
(4) u have an open circle on 1.5 with shading to the right...
x > 1.5
Abstraction in mathematics is the process of extracting the underlying structures, patterns or properties of a mathematical concept, removing any dependence on real world objects with which it might originally have been connected, and generalizing it so that it has wider applications or matching among other abstract
Answer:
a) -7/9
b) 16 / (n² + 15n + 56)
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
When n = 1, there is only one term in the series, so a₁ = s₁.
a₁ = (1 − 8) / (1 + 8)
a₁ = -7/9
The sum of the first n terms is equal to the sum of the first n−1 terms plus the nth term.
sₙ = sₙ₋₁ + aₙ
(n − 8) / (n + 8) = (n − 1 − 8) / (n − 1 + 8) + aₙ
(n − 8) / (n + 8) = (n − 9) / (n + 7) + aₙ
aₙ = (n − 8) / (n + 8) − (n − 9) / (n + 7)
If you wish, you can simplify by finding the common denominator.
aₙ = [(n − 8) (n + 7) − (n − 9) (n + 8)] / [(n + 8) (n + 7)]
aₙ = [n² − n − 56 − (n² − n − 72)] / (n² + 15n + 56)
aₙ = 16 / (n² + 15n + 56)
The infinite sum is:
∑₁°° aₙ = lim(n→∞) sₙ
∑₁°° aₙ = lim(n→∞) (n − 8) / (n + 8)
∑₁°° aₙ = 1
The answer is = (x + 5y) (x + 7y)
Break the expression into two groups.
x^2 + 12xy + 35y^2
(x^2 + 5xy) (7xy + 35^2)
Factor out x from x^2 + 5xy: x(x + 5y)
Factor out 7y from 7xy + 35y^2: 7y(x + 5y)
=x(x + 5y) + 7y(x + 5y)
Next, factor out the common term (x+ 5y).
Answer = (x + 5y) (x + 7y)
