The change of the weather balloon would be 90% increase. to get the percentage of change we have to subtract 50 ft to 95 ft, it will then give us the 45 ft change. Then we have to divide 45 ft by 50 ft times 100, it will give us 90%. Then since the change and percentage of change is positive then the change could be describe as increasing.

Find the interval of convergence of the power series. (Be sure to include a check for convergence at the endpoints of the interv
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

(0, 16]

Step-by-step explanation:

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (x−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

According to the ratio test, if we define L such that:

L = lim(n→∞) |aₙ₊₁ / aₙ|

then the series will converge if L < 1.

aₙ = (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (x−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

aₙ₊₁ = (-1)ⁿ⁺² (x−8)ⁿ⁺¹ / ((n+1) 8ⁿ⁺¹)

Plugging into the ratio test:

L = lim(n→∞) | (-1)ⁿ⁺² (x−8)ⁿ⁺¹ / ((n+1) 8ⁿ⁺¹) × n 8ⁿ / ((-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (x−8)ⁿ) |

L = lim(n→∞) | -n (x−8) / (8 (n+1)) |

L = (|x−8| / 8) lim(n→∞) | n / (n+1) |

L = |x−8| / 8

For the series to converge:

L < 1

|x−8| / 8 < 1

|x−8| < 8

-8 < x−8 < 8

0 < x < 16

Now we check the endpoints.  If x = 0:

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (0−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° -(-1)ⁿ (-8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° -(8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° -1 / n

This is a harmonic series, and diverges.

If x = 16:

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (16−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ / n

This is an alternating series, and converges.

Therefore, the interval of convergence is:

0 < x ≤ 16

Or, in interval notation, (0, 16].

Which expression can be used to find the value of expression below -(7/10) + 2/8 + 1/10 - (4/8)
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

(-17)/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

-7/10 + 2/8 + 1/10 - 4/8

The gcd of 2 and 8 is 2, so 2/8 = (2×1)/(2×4) = 2/2×1/4 = 1/4:

-7/10 + 1/4 + 1/10 - 4/8

The gcd of -4 and 8 is 4, so (-4)/8 = (4 (-1))/(4×2) = 4/4×(-1)/2 = (-1)/2:

-7/10 + 1/4 + 1/10 + -1/2

Put -7/10 + 1/4 + 1/10 - 1/2 over the common denominator 20. -7/10 + 1/4 + 1/10 - 1/2 = (2 (-7))/20 + 5/20 + 2/20 - 10/20:

(2 (-7))/20 + 5/20 + 2/20 - 10/20

2 (-7) = -14:

(-14)/20 + 5/20 + 2/20 - 10/20

-14/20 + 5/20 + 2/20 - 10/20 = (-14 + 5 + 2 - 10)/20:

(-14 + 5 + 2 - 10)/20

-14 + 5 + 2 - 10 = (5 + 2) - (14 + 10):

((5 + 2) - (14 + 10))/20

5 + 2 = 7:

(7 - (14 + 10))/20

| 1 | 4

+ | 1 | 0

| 2 | 4:

(7 - 24)/20

7 - 24 = -(24 - 7):

(-(24 - 7))/20

| 1 | 14

| 2 | 4

- | | 7

| 1 | 7:
