Let <em>f(x)</em> be the sum of the geometric series,

f(x)=\displaystyle\frac1{1-x} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n

for |<em>x</em>| < 1. Then taking the derivative gives the desired sum,

f'(x)=\displaystyle\boxed{\dfrac1{(1-x)^2}} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty nx^{n-1} = \sum_{n=1}^\infty nx^{n-1}

If Taylor has 2 times as many nickels as quarters and they have a combined value of 245 cents, how many of each coin does he hav
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Taylor has 14 Nickels and 7 Quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

A nickel is equivalent to 5 cent while a quarter is equivalent to 25 cents.

If the number of nickels Taylor has is 2x then the number of quarters is x

Given that the total value is 245 cents,

5(2x) + 25x = 245

10x + 25x = 245

35x = 245

x = 7, 2x = 2 × 7 = 14

It means Taylor has 14 Nickels and 7 Quarters

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x+8y -64 Fully reduce your answer.
Lelechka [254]

Answer: I am pretty sure it is y=-1/4x-8. Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:subtract the 2x from both sides which gives you 8y=-2x-64. Then you want to divide both sides by 8 to get y=-1/4x-8

Select all the correct locations on the table.
AlladinOne [14]
Average rate of change: r=[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)

r=-60→[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)=-60

b=5; f(b)=-213; a=1; f(a)=27
(-213-27)/(5-1)=(-240)/4=-60

Answer: The <span>two points in the table which create an interval with an average rate of change of -60 are:
x     f(x)
1      27
5   -213</span>
