Hi there!

To begin, we can distribute sec²x with (1 - sin²x):

= sec²x - sec²xsin²x

Which simplifies to:

= sec²x - tan²x

Recall the Pythagorean identity:

1 + tan²x = sec²x

Rearrange alike to the solved for expression above:

1 = sec²x - tan²x

Thus, using the Pythagorean Identity, sec²x(1 - sin²x) = 1.

Explain why the solution to 3r =2 must be less then 1.

saveliy_v [14]

For this you have to get r by itself so you put 1 over 3 and move it to the other side and then you get 2/3 as an answer

The second term in a geometric series is 10, and the seventh term is 10,240. Find the sum of the first six terms.

just olya [345]

Answer:

The sum of the first 6 terms is 3,412.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The second term of the geometric series is given by:

$a_{2}=a_{1}*r$

Where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. The seventh term can be written as a function of the second term as follows:

$a_{7}=a_{1}*r^{6} \\a_{7}=a_{2}*r^{5} \\10,240 = 10*r^{5}\\r=\sqrt[5]{1024} \\r = 4$

The sum of "n" terms of a geometric series is given by:

$a_{1} = \frac{10}{4} = 2.5\\S_{n}=a_{1}(\frac{r^{n}-1 }{r-1})\\S_{6}=2.5(\frac{4^{6}-1 }{4-1})\\S_{6}=3,412.5$

The sum of the first 6 terms is 3,412.5.
