<h3>
Answer: 375</h3>
=========================================
Work Shown:
a = 300 = first term
r = 60/300 = 0.2 = common ratio
We multiply each term by 0.2, aka 1/5, to get the next term.
Since -1 < r < 1 is true, we can use the infinite geometric sum formula below
S = a/(1-r)
S = 300/(1-0.2)
S = 300/0.8
S = 375
----------
As a sort of "check", we can add up partial sums like so
- 300+60 = 360
- 300+60+12 = 360+12 = 372
- 300+60+12+2.4 = 372+2.4 = 374.4
- 300+60+12+2.4+0.48 = 374.4+0.48 = 374.88
and so on. The idea is that each time we add on a new term, we should be getting closer and closer to 375. I put "check" in quotation marks because it's probably not the rigorous of checks possible. But it may give a good idea of what's going on.
----------
Side note: If the common ratio r was either r < -1 or r > 1, then the terms we add on would get larger and larger. This would mean we don't approach a single finite value with the infinite sum.
Answer:
I think it would be b
Step-by-step explanation:
He doesn't want to spend more than 50 and he needs 8 for lunch so the 8 dollars and the book can't go over 50.
Its either a or b im just not sure if its plus 8 or minus 8. sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
1) x/20 = -9
By cross multiplication,
x = -180
2) -168 = -14k
k = -168/-14
k = 12
3) -5m = -50
m = 10
4) -320 = -20n
n = 16
5) -4 = x - 5
x = 1
6) -6(-8 + n) = -54
42 - 6n = -54
-6n = -54 -52
6n = 106
n = 17.6
7) 3(x - 9) = -3
3x - 27 = -3
3x = 24
x = 8
8) 9k + 3 = -78
9k = -81
k = -9
9)4 + (n/4) = 8
By taking LCM,
16 + n/4 = 8
16 + n = 32
n = 16
10) -5r + 7 = -73
-5r = -80
r = 16
