What are all values of x for which the series shown converges? ​
adoni [48]

Answer:

One convergence criteria that is useful here is that, if aₙ is the n-th term of this sequence, then we must have:

Iaₙ₊₁I < IaₙI

This means that the absolute value of the terms must decrease as n increases.

Then we must have:

\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}}

We can write this as:

\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}} = \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n + 1)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}

If we assume that n is a really big number, then:

n + 1 ≈ 1

And we can write:

\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}

Then we have the inequality

1 > (x - 2)/3

And remember that this must be in absolute value, then we will have that:

-1 < (x - 2)/3 < 1

-3 < x - 2 < 3

-3 + 2 < x < 3 + 2

-1 < x < 5

The first option looks like this, but it uses the symbols ≤≥, so it is not the same as this, then the correct option will be the second.

Pleaseeee help me. I'm stuck on a math question.
lozanna [386]

The slope of the function for pronghorn antelope is 60.78 which infers that the rate of speed of the pronghorn is 60.78 miles per hour.

7) The given function that represents the speed of the pronghorn is

y = 60.78x - 5.4

Comparing this function with the general equation of a straight line

y = mx + c we can conclude that the slope of the function is 60.78 .

So the Pronghorn's rate of speed is 60.78 miles per hour.

8) Now the speed of the cheetah is given in the form of a table.

Let us take any two points on the graph

(0.5,21.85) and (2,118.60)

Slope of the line passing through these two points

= (118.6-21.85)/(2-0.5)

=64.5

So the slope of the graph is 64.5 and the average rate of speed of the Cheetah is 64.5 miles per hour.

9) From the above two slopes and the rate of speed we can conclude that the speed of the cheetah is 64.5 mph which is greater than that of the pronghorn 's speed of 60.78 miles per hour.
