Mathematics
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a^8 ÷ b^12

Step-by-step explanation:

a^-5 · b^-4 / a^-13 · b^8

when dividing exponents with the same bases, subtract the exponents

a^8 · b^-12

do not leave a negative exponent; put it into the denominator and it becomes positive

b^-12 = 1 /b^12

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

D. The sequence diverges by oscillation.

Step-by-step explanation:

an = (-1.00000004)n

From root test

L = Lim n->infinity (|an|)(1/n)

==> L = Lim n->infinity (|-1.00000004n|)(1/n)

==> L = Lim n->infinity (|-1.00000004|n)(1/n)

==> L = Lim n->infinity |-1.00000004|

==> L = 1.00000004 > 1

Hence series diverges.
