Answer:

Converges, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

∑ 5 / 2ⁿ⁻¹

= ∑ 5 (½)ⁿ⁻¹

This is a geometric series with a₁ = 5 and r = ½. Since |r| < 1, the series converges to:

S = a₁ / (1 − r)

S = 5 / (1 − ½)

S = 10

Serggg [28]

Answer:

2824

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number of pounds and divide by the number of people:

3.474×10⁹ / 1.23×10⁶

Divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

(3.474 / 1.23) × 10⁹⁻⁶

2.824×10³

So the country produced about 2,824 pounds of garbage per person in 2005.
