Answer:

sum = = 1 / ( 1-e^(-5) )

( 1.00678   to 5 decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question: sum

[infinity]

Σ e^-5n

n=0

We note that this is a geometric series,

with n=0, e^(-5n) = e^0 = 1

with n=1, e^(-5n) = e^(-5)

with n=2, e^(-5n) = e^(-10)

...

Therefore the common ratio is r=e^(-5)

and the sum for a geometric series

a+ar+ar^2 + ... ar^N

=a(1-r^(N+1)) / (1-r)

=1(1-r^(infinity-1)) / (1-e^(-5))

= 1 / ( 1-e^(-5) )

The sum of two numbers is at least 30 and the difference between the two numbers is less than 8. X and y are the two numbers suc
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1 Expert Answer

Let x and y be the two numbers. Then by assumptions we have x+y=30 and x-y=20. Hence, y=x-20 and by plugging this into the first equation we obtain x+x-20=30 or 2x=50 or x=25 and y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

So, divide 30 by 2 . That gives you 15 for x, 15 for y. Now, you have difference of six, divide by two, that equals 3.
