Answer: 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

if two number have the same denominator, then the number with the greatest numerator is the greatest.

Basically if the bottom number of two fractions are the same, the bigger top number is the bigger number.

Answer:

5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It may help you to rewrite 1/4 and 5/4 as mixed decimal fractions:

0.25 and 1.25. Obviously 1.25 is larger.

Since 1/4 and 5/4 have the same denominator, 4, you can answer this question by focusing on the numerators, 1 and 5. Again, the second one is the larger (greater).

pogonyaev

Answer:

a)64

b)96

Step-by-step explanation:

For this we calculate the number of rows, 32, as 2+3 is 5, and 160/5 is 32. Then we know that there are 32 rows, and in each row are 2 left seats and 3 right seats, so we multiply 32 by both numbers for the answers.

What is the sum of the geometric series 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^4 + … + 2^9?

mars1129 [50]

The nth term is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
an=1(2)^(n-1)
a1=1
r=2

the sum of a geometric seequence is
$S_{n}=\frac{a_{1}(1-r^{n})}{1-r}$
a1=1
r=2
we want to find $S_{10}$ (since we minus 1, the highest exponet is 9 so add 1 to make it correct)

$S_{10}=\frac{1(1-2^{10})}{1-2}$
$S_{10}=\frac{(1-1024}{-1}$
$S_{10}=\frac{(-1023}{-1}$
$S_{10}=1023$
