Work in reverse.

45 + 15= 60. 60/2= 30. 30 + x = 47.

So, x= 47-30.
x= 17.

Which equations show you how to find 16-9?
Pie
The correct answer is B.
16-9=7
So, 7+9=16.

If we add to 9 only 1 (out of those 7) we have then 10, remaining 6.
9+1=10

Now, if to 10 we add the remaining 6 we will have the final 16.
10+6=16

16-9=7 <=> 9+7=16 <=> (9+1)+6=16

Please help me solve this​

You can factor the 32 out of the sum:

\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^\infty 32 \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m-1} = 32\sum_{m=1}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m-1}

We can also change the index as follows

\displaystyle 32\sum_{m=1}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m-1} = 32\sum_{m=0}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m}

Now, we have a theorem that states that the series

\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^\infty a^m

converges if and only if |a|, and in this case we have

\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^\infty a^m = \dfrac{1}{1-a}

This is your case, because you have

|a|=\dfrac{1}{2}

which implies that your series converges, and the value is

\displaystyle 32\sum_{m=0}^\infty \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{m} = 32 \cdot \dfrac{1}{1-\frac{1}{2}} = 32\cdot 2 = 64
