Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the sum of an infinite geometric series with first term a1 and common ratio r (where |r| < 1) is ...
sum = a1/(1 -r)
Applying this to the given series, we get ...
a. sum = 5/(1 -3/4) = 5/(1/4) = 20
b. sum = d/(1 -1/t) = d/((t-1)/t) = dt/(t-1)
_____
The derivation of the above formula is in most texts on sequences and series. In general, you write an expression for the difference of the sum (S) and the product r·S. You find all terms of the series cancel except the first and last, and the last goes to zero in the limit, because r^∞ → 0 for |r| < 1. Hence you get ...
S -rS = a1
S = a1/(1 -r)
Answer:
3/13
Step-by-step explanation:
8/13 subtract by 5/13. If the denominator is the same, you keep it, don't change it. Just subtract the numerator.
Make sure to simplify, if it is already simplified that will be the answer.

Answer:
Surface area = 92 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula to find the surface area of a rectangular prism is,
Surface area = 2(lb + bh + hl)
Here, l = length of the prism
b = width of the prism
h = height of the prism
By substituting the measures of the sides given in the picture,
Surface area = 2(2×3 + 3×8 + 8×2)
= 2(6 + 24 + 16)
= 2(46)
= 92 square feet
Therefore, surface area of the given rectangular prism is 92 ft².
