Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let u and v be real numbers. The sum of u and v = u + v and the difference between u and v = u - v.

u + v < u - v means the sum of two real numbers is less than the difference between the two numbers.

There exist two real numbers such that their sum is less than the difference between them

This is true when atleast one of the numbers is negative, for example u = 2 and v = -2

u + v = 2 + (-2) = 0 , u - v = 2 - (-2) = 4

u + v < u - v.

b) Let x be a real number and x² be the square of the real number

x² < x means that the square of a real number is less than the real number

We can rewrite the statement as: There exist a real number such that its square is smaller than itself.

The statement is true for x is between 0 and ±1

E.g. for x = 1/2, x² = (1/2)² = 1/4

1/4 < 1/2

c) Let n represent all positive integers. n² is the square of n.

n²≥n means that the square of n is greater or equal to n.

We can rewrite the statement as: For all positive integer numbers, the square of the number is greater than or equal to the number itself

The statement is true.

1² ≥ 1, 2² ≥ 2 e.t.c

d)  Let a and b be real numbers. The sum of a and b = a + b. |a| is the absolute value of a and |b| is the absolute value of b

|a+b|≤|a|+|b| means the absolute value of the sum of two real numbers is less than or equal to the sum of their individual absolute value.

We can rewrite the statement as: For two real numbers, the absolute value of their sum is less than or equal to their individual absolute value sum.

This statement is true for all real numbers.

How do you find the perimeter of a triangle?

To find the perimeter<span> of a polygon, take the sum of the length of each side. The formula for </span>perimeter<span> of a triangle would be the sum of the three side lengths (a +b+c). In the case, where it is a regular polygon, the perimeter would be 3 times the side length. Hope this answers the question.</span>

A lender will make an 80% loan-to-value loan on a property that is appraised for $72,250 and sells for $73,500. If the buyer has
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$1,250

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Loan to value ratio;LTV = 80% = 0.8

Appraised value of property = $72,250

Selling value of property = $73,500

Now, the formula for Loan to value ratio is;

LTV = Loan amount/Appraised value of property

0.8 = loan amount/72250

Cross multiply to get;

Loan amount = 0.8 × 72250 = $57,800

Now,we are told that he has saved $14,450.

Thus, total money raised including loan = $57,800 + $14,450 = $72,250

Since the selling value = $73,500, then,

Amount left for him to save in order to make down payment = $73,500 - $72,250 = $1,250

Find the radius of convergence and the internval of convergence:
o-na [289]
You can use the root test here. The series will converge if

L=\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{\frac{(4-x)^n}{4^n+9^n}}

You have

L=\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{\frac{(4-x)^n}{4^n+9^n}}=|4-x|\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac1{\sqrt[n]{4^n+9^n}}

Notice that

\dfrac1{\sqrt[n]{4^n+9^n}}=\dfrac1{\sqrt[n]{9^n}\sqrt[n]{1+\left(\frac49\right)^n}}=\dfrac1{9\sqrt[n]{1+\left(\frac49\right)^n}}

so as n\to\infty, you have \left(\dfrac49\right)^n\to0, which means you end up with

L=\dfrac{|4x-1|}9

This is the interval of convergence. The radius of convergence can be determined by finding the half-length of the interval, or by solving the inequality in terms of |x-c| so that R is the ROC. You get

|4x-1|

There are 11 women and 9 men in a certain club. If the club is to select a committee of 2 women and 2 men, how many different su
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
We can tell it’s not a permutation because it’s picking two people. Order doesn’t matter.

The number of total possible groups of men is 9 C 2 = 9!/((9-2)!(2!)) = 36

The number of total possible groups of women is 11 C 2 = 11!/((11-2)!(2!)) = 55

55 * 36 = 1980 different groups in the committee
