Answer:

a=5, b=15

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The figure MNLO is a Kite

LO=NO and MN=LM

we have

LO=7a-14, NO=b+6

7a-14=b+6 -----> equation A

MN=b, LM=3a

b=3a -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for a

7a-14=(3a)+6

7a-3a=6+14

4a=20

a=5

Find the value of b

b=3a ----> b=3(5)=15

therefore

a=5, b=15

Use the formula to evaluate the series 1/4 + 1/9 + 1/27 + 1/81.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Is the first term supposed to be 1/4, or did you actually mean 1/3?

I'll assume the latter. Write

$S=\dfrac13+\dfrac19+\dfrac1{27}+\dfrac1{81}$
$S=\dfrac13+\dfrac1{3^2}+\dfrac1{3^3}+\dfrac1{3^4}$
$\dfrac13S=\dfrac1{3^2}+\dfrac1{3^3}+\dfrac1{3^4}+\dfrac1{3^5}$
$\implies S-\dfrac13S=\dfrac13-\dfrac1{3^5}$
$\dfrac23S=\dfrac13\left(1-\dfrac1{3^4}\right)$
$S=\dfrac12\left(1-\dfrac1{81}\right)$
$S=\dfrac{40}{81}$

What was the error in this equation?

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The error is the solution.

The solution is all real numbers, or infinite amount of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-4(2n - 3) = 12 - 8n

Step 2: Solve for n

Distribute -4: -8n + 12 = 12 - 8n
Subtract 12 on both sides: -8n = -8n
Add 8n to both sides: 0 = 0

Here we see that n can equal any number. If you plug in any number n, it will render the equation true. Therefore, our solution is n = infinite amount of solutions.

n = 0 is only slightly correct. 0 does work as the solution, but there are solutions as well.
