Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

S=1+1/2+1/4+1/8+...

Multiply both sides by 2:

2S=2+1+1/2+1/4+1/8+....

Subtract equations:

-1S=-2

Divide both sides by -1

S=2

Or you could just keep adding more terms of the series to see it is approaching 2.

1+1/2=3/2=1.5

1+1/2+1/4=1.75

1+1/2+1/4+1/8=1.875

And so on..

2. c=3.606

3. a=18.974

Step-by-step explanation:

41^2-11^2=b^2

1681-121=b^2

b^=1560

b=39.497

2^2+3^2=c^2

4+9=c^2

c^2=13

c=3.606

21^2-9^9=a^2

441-81=a^2

a^2=360

a=18.974
