Determine whether the geometric series is convergent or divergent. 9 + 8 + 64/9 + 512/81 + ..... If it is convergent, find its s
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Convergent; 81

Step-by-step explanation:

r = term2/term1 = 8/9

8/9 < 1 so convergent

Sum = 9/(1 - 8/9)

= 9/(1/9) = 81

Find the missing side or angle.<br> Round to the nearest tenth.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

b = 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

< C = 53°

< B = 80°

a = 2

Required:

Find b

Solution:

The question given suggests we are given measures for a ∆.

To find side b, which corresponds to angle B, first, we'd find angle A, which corresponds to side a, then apply the Law of sines to find side b.

=> A = 180 - (53 + 80) = 47°

Law of Sines: \frac{a}{sin(A} = \frac{b}{sin(B}

Plug in the values into the formula

\frac{2}{sin(47} = \frac{b}{sin(80}

Cross multiply

2*sin(80) = b*sin(47)

Divide both sides by sin(47) to make b the subject of formula

\frac{2*sin(80)}{sin(47} = b

2.69 = b

b = 2.7 (nearest tenth)

Hi! how do i do this?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

  p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational function has a vertical asymptote where the denominator is zero.

__

Your function will have a denominator that is zero when ...

  x -p = 0   ⇒   x = p

We are told there is a vertical asymptote at x = 2. That means ...

  p = 2
