\bf \textit{sum of an infinite geometric serie}\\\\
\stackrel{for~~|r|\ \textless \ 1}{S=\sum\limits_{i=0}^{\infty}~a_1r^i\implies \cfrac{a_1}{1-r}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
a_1=42\\
r=\frac{3}{4}
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
S=\cfrac{42}{1-\frac{3}{4}}\implies S=\cfrac{42}{\frac{1}{4}}\implies S=164

bearing in mind that, the geometric sequence is "convergent" only when |r|<1, or namely "r" is a fraction between 0 and 1.

<span>cube has six identical walls

96ft</span>²<span> : 6 = 6 ft</span>²<span>  - </span>one wall surface

<span>pattern on the surface of the cube
</span>A = a²
a - <span>the edge of the cube

A = a</span>²    ⇔ a=√A
                  a = √(16ft)² = 4ft
V = volume
V = a³
V = (4ft)³ = 64 ft³

If their food and beverages costs$25.30 and there is an 8% meals tax, how much is the bill
Mashutka [201]
Hey there Unrazed90,

Answer : 

100% = $25.30
1% = $25.30 / 100
      = $0.253
8% = $0.253 x 8 
      = $2.024
Total = $25.30 + $2.024
         = $27.324
         = $27

Hope this helps :D
