Geometric series is a series of numbers where the ratios of successive terms are the same. <span> To answer this problem, the information that we need to know are the first first term, the number of terms and the ratio of any successive terms. First we get the number of terms by the equation: 
an= a1(r)^(n-1) solve for n, which results to 8. 
Then the sum is computed by the equation:
Sn = a1(((r)^n)-1)/(r-1))
The answer is then A 1,020</span>

As you can see I keep getting questions wrong.... Can you answer the last question?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

  y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...

  • all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
  • y is a factor of every exponent

The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

__

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.

  (3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)

  3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)

  3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)

  -5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3

  14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y

  y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution

______

The rules of exponents we used are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

  1/a^b = a^-b

Plz help me with this math and also explain
jasenka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>[1]</h2>

  • SI = $250
  • Rate (R) = 12\sf \dfrac{1}{2} %
  • Time (t) = 4 years

\longrightarrow \tt { SI = \dfrac{PRT}{100} } \\

\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times 12\cfrac{1}{2} \times 4}{100} } \\

\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times \cfrac{25}{2} \times 4}{100} } \\

\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times 25 \times 2}{100} } \\

\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times 50}{100} } \\

\longrightarrow \tt { 250 \times 100 = P \times 50} \\

\longrightarrow \tt { 25000 = P \times 50} \\

\longrightarrow \tt { \dfrac{25000}{50} = P } \\

\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \green{ \tt { \$ \; 500 = P }}}} \\

Therefore principal is $500.

  • 2/7 of the balls are red.
  • 3/5 of the balls are blue.
  • Rest are yellow.
  • Number of yellow balls = 36

Let the total number of balls be x.

→ Red balls + Blue balls + Yellow balls = Total number of balls

\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{2}{7}x + \dfrac{3}{5}x + 36 = x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{10x + 21x + 1260}{35} = x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{31x + 1260}{35} = x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ 31x + 1260= 35x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ 1260= 35x-31x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ 1260= 4x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{1260 }{4}= x} \\

\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{  \tt { 315 = x }}} \\

Total number of balls is 315.

A/Q,

3/5 of the balls are blue.

\longrightarrow \tt{ Balls_{(Blue)} =\dfrac{3 }{5}x} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ Balls_{(Blue)} =\dfrac{3 }{5}(315)} \\

\longrightarrow \tt{ Balls_{(Blue)} = 3(63)} \\

\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \green {\tt { Balls_{(Blue)} = 189 }}}} \\
