A right triangle has an angle measure of 52.4 degrees. What is the value of 'x', the missing angle?

1 answer:

7 0

In every triangle the sum of the three angles = 180°

If you have a right angled triangle it means one angle is 90°

So 90°+52.4°+ x = 180°

x=180-52.4-90
x=37.6°

Terry is buying water. He needs 22 liters. A half-liter of water costs $2.11. A 200 -milliliter container of water costs $1.01.

Dvinal [7]

Answer: Terry should buy the half-liter of water that costs $2.11 because buying 200 litres here is cheaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Terry is buying water and needs 22 liters. A half-liter of water costs $2.11. Using this information, 22 litres will cost:

= 22 ÷ 1/2 × 2.11

= 22 × 2 × 2.11

= $92.84

Also, A 200 -milliliter container of water costs $1.01. Using this information, 22 litres will cost:

= 22 × 1.01 ÷ 200/1000

= 22 × 1.01 × 1000/200

= 22 × 1.01 × 5

= $111.1

Based on this information, Terry should buy the half-liter of water that costs $2.11 because buying 200 litres here is cheaper.

Find the interval of convergence of the power series. (Be sure to include a check for convergence at the endpoints of the interv

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

(0, 16]

Step-by-step explanation:

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (x−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

According to the ratio test, if we define L such that:

L = lim(n→∞) |aₙ₊₁ / aₙ|

then the series will converge if L < 1.

aₙ = (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (x−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

aₙ₊₁ = (-1)ⁿ⁺² (x−8)ⁿ⁺¹ / ((n+1) 8ⁿ⁺¹)

Plugging into the ratio test:

L = lim(n→∞) | (-1)ⁿ⁺² (x−8)ⁿ⁺¹ / ((n+1) 8ⁿ⁺¹) × n 8ⁿ / ((-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (x−8)ⁿ) |

L = lim(n→∞) | -n (x−8) / (8 (n+1)) |

L = (|x−8| / 8) lim(n→∞) | n / (n+1) |

L = |x−8| / 8

For the series to converge:

L < 1

|x−8| / 8 < 1

|x−8| < 8

-8 < x−8 < 8

0 < x < 16

Now we check the endpoints. If x = 0:

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (0−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° -(-1)ⁿ (-8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° -(8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° -1 / n

This is a harmonic series, and diverges.

If x = 16:

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (16−8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ (8)ⁿ / (n 8ⁿ)

∑ₙ₌₁°° (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ / n

This is an alternating series, and converges.

Therefore, the interval of convergence is:

0 < x ≤ 16

Or, in interval notation, (0, 16].
