Answer:

6 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

2 − 2/4 + 2/9 − 2/16 + ...

∑ (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ 2 / n²

Applying alternating series test:

lim(n→∞) 2/n² = 0

2/(n+1)² < 2/n², so the series is decreasing.

Therefore, the series converges.

2/(n+1)² < 0.05

(n+1)²/2 > 20

(n+1)² > 40

n+1 > 6.32

n > 5.32

n = 6

If ƒ
SSSSS [86.1K]
(B)
if <em>f</em>(a) = K, then that means <em>f </em>sends (a) to (K). 
the inverse function, <em>f</em>-1, goes back where you started, so <em>f</em>-1 <em />sends (K) to (a). 
<em>f</em>-1(K) = a.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (−4,−6 )?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The question says that the line is parallel to the line above, so it is horizontal.  When the line is horizontal it will be a 'Y='  Then, you take a look at the y axis and check to see what part of the axis the line is going through.  Therefore, you can figure out that the awnser is C.  I hope this explanation helps!
