Answer:

I and II only

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the alternating series test:

For a series ∑(-1)ⁿ aₙ or ∑(-1)ⁿ⁺¹ aₙ

If lim(n→∞) aₙ = 0

and aₙ is decreasing,

then the series converges.

(I) aₙ = 1 / ln(n)

lim(n→∞) 1 / ln(n) = 0.

1 / ln(n) > 1 / ln(n+1).

This series converges.

(II) aₙ = n / (n²+1)

lim(n→∞) n / (n²+1) = 0.

n / (n²+1) > (n+1) / ((n+1)²+1) for n ≥ 1.

This series converges.

(III) aₙ = 2n / (5n−1)

lim(n→∞) 2n / (5n−1) = 2/5.

The alternating series test is inconclusive for this series.

How can you use the multiplication property of equality to rewrite the equation 0.6x+4.8=7.2 so that the numbers in the problem
Mars2501 [29]

We are given the equation:

0.6 x + 4.8 = 7.2

 

In this case, the multiplication property of equality states that whatever is multiplied on one side should also be multiplied on the other side. Now we need to find the number that will make everything a whole number, in this case 5. Multiply everything by 5:

5 * (0.6 x + 4.8 = 7.2)

3 x + 24 = 36

However we can see that we can still further simplify the equation by multiplying everything by 1/3:

(1/3) * (3 x + 24 = 36)

x + 8 = 12

or

x = 4

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

(6, 24)  this ordered pair has an x-value of 6 and a y-value of 24

The only equation, if you substitute those values into it, which works is D.

24 = 4(6)

24 = 24

And this is the last one i need done
quester [9]

Answer:

x=-2.5,9

Step-by-step explanation:

Set them equal to each other to say 2x^2-9x=4x+45. Get them all on one side to get 2x^2-13x-45. Factor that out to get (x+2.5)(x-9). Set that equal to 0 to get x=-2.5,9
