The population of a local species of beetle can be found using an infinite geometric series where a1 = 880 and the common ratio
is one fourth. Write the sum in sigma notation, and calculate the sum (if possible) that will be the upper limit of this population.

<span>Data:
infinite geometric series
A1
= 880
r = 1 / 4
The sum of a geometric series in sigma
notation is:
n 1 - r^n
∑ Ai = A ----------- ; where A = A1
i = 1 1-r
When | r | < 1 the infinite sum exists and is equal to</span><span><span>:
∞ A
∑ Ai = ---------- ; where A = A1
i = 1 1 - r</span>
So, in this case</span><span><span>:
∞ 880
∑ Ai = -------------- = 4 * 880 / 3 = 3520 /3 = 1173 + 1/3
i = 1 1 - (1/4)</span> </span>
Answer: 1173 and 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5 > 9
so 2x > 9-5
2x > 4
x > 2
5x <= 30
x <= 6
answer is 2 < x <= 6
or interval notation it is (2, 6]
Answer:
40.25 I guess
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation would be 2n x 2 = 3n - 1/2.
So, combine like terms to make it 4n = 3n - 1/2. Subtract to get n = -1/2.
Your answer is -1/2.
Answer:
A) (x-7)/(x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x^2-10x+21)/(x^2+x-12)=[(x-3)(x-7)]/[(x+4)(x-3)]=(x-7)/(x+4)
