<h3>
Answer: 375</h3>
=========================================
Work Shown:
a = 300 = first term
r = 60/300 = 0.2 = common ratio
We multiply each term by 0.2, aka 1/5, to get the next term.
Since -1 < r < 1 is true, we can use the infinite geometric sum formula below
S = a/(1-r)
S = 300/(1-0.2)
S = 300/0.8
S = 375
----------
As a sort of "check", we can add up partial sums like so
- 300+60 = 360
- 300+60+12 = 360+12 = 372
- 300+60+12+2.4 = 372+2.4 = 374.4
- 300+60+12+2.4+0.48 = 374.4+0.48 = 374.88
and so on. The idea is that each time we add on a new term, we should be getting closer and closer to 375. I put "check" in quotation marks because it's probably not the rigorous of checks possible. But it may give a good idea of what's going on.
----------
Side note: If the common ratio r was either r < -1 or r > 1, then the terms we add on would get larger and larger. This would mean we don't approach a single finite value with the infinite sum.

Answer:
a) 1/800 or 0.00125
b) i) 0.0013
ii) 0.001
c) 60%
Step-by-step explanation:
T = [tan(2×30)+1][2cos(30)-1] ÷ (y²-x²)
T = (tan60 + 1)(2cos30 - 1) ÷ (41² - 9²)
T = (sqrt(3) + 1)(sqrt(3) - 1) ÷ 1600
T = (3-1)/1600
T = 2/1600
T = 1/800
T = 0.00125
Error: 0.002 - 0.00125
0.00075
%error
0.00075/0.00125 × 100

Answer:
$138
Step-by-step explanation:
We can first turn the words into a mathematical equation by substituting words with the information we have:
Total earning - ( Price of three books)
$180 - (Price of one book x 3)
$180 - ($14 x 3)
Finally, after we have created the mathematical equation, we solve it!
$180 - ($14 x 3)
$180 - $42
$138
