Answer:

x = 2, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

y=6x-7

9x-2y=8

can be written as

(1) 6x - y = 7

(2) 9x -2y = 8

(2)-2*(1) gives

9x -2y -12x +2y = 8 - 2*7 = 8 - 14 = -6

<=> -3x=-6

<=> x = 6/3=2

and we replace it in (1)

y = 6*2-7=12-7=5

hope this helps

I found the interval of convergence, but I am not sure how to do the second part, finding the sum of the series as a function of

antiseptic1488 [7]

The given series is geometric with common ratio $6^x - 9$ , which converges if $|6^x - 9|$ (i.e. the interval of convergence). We have the well-known result

$\displaystyle |r| < 1 \implies \sum_{n=0}^\infty ar^n = \frac{a}{1-r}$

If you're not familiar with that result, it's easy to reproduce.

Let $S_N$ be the $N$ -th partial sum of the infinite series,

$\displaystyle S_N = \sum_{n=0}^N \left(6^x - 9\right)^n = 1 + \left(6^x - 9\right) + \left(6^x - 9\right)^2 + \cdots + \left(6^x - 9\right)^N$

Multiply both sides by the ratio.

$\left(6^x - 9\right) S_N = \left(6^x - 9\right) + \left(6^x - 9\right)^2 + \left(6^x - 9\right)^3 + \cdots + \left(6^x - 9\right)^{N+1}$

Subtract this from $S_N$ to eliminate all the powers of the ratio between 0 and $N+1$ .

$\left(1 - \left(6^x - 9\right)\right) S_N = 1 - \left(6^x - 9\right)^{N+1}$

Solve for $S_N$ .

$S_N = \dfrac{1 - \left(6^x - 9\right)^{N+1}}{10-6^x}$

Now as $N\to\infty$ , the exponential term converges to 0 and we're left with

$\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty \left(6^x-9\right)^n = \lim_{N\to\infty} S_N = \boxed{\frac1{10-6^x}}$

If (4x−7)2=ax2+bx+c for all values of x, what is the value of c(b+a)?

ollegr [7]

Answer:

-1960

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression on the left expands to ...

(4x -7)² = (4x)² +2(4x)(-7) +(-7)² = 16x² -56x +49

Matching coefficients, you have ...

a = 16
b = -56
c = 49

Then the expression c(b+a) evaluates to ...

49(-56+16) = 49(-40) = -1960

Find the value of x.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the sine ratio to find x

sin30° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{5}{x}$

cross- multiply

x × sin30° = 5 ( sin30° = 0.5 )

0.5x = 5 ( divide both sides by 0.5 )

x = 10
