Answer:
6 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
2 − 2/4 + 2/9 − 2/16 + ...
∑ (-1)ⁿ⁺¹ 2 / n²
Applying alternating series test:
lim(n→∞) 2/n² = 0
2/(n+1)² < 2/n², so the series is decreasing.
Therefore, the series converges.
2/(n+1)² < 0.05
(n+1)²/2 > 20
(n+1)² > 40
n+1 > 6.32
n > 5.32
n = 6
Answer:
The sequence <u>is</u> geometric and the common ratio is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
A sequence is geometric if each term (after the first one) is equal to the term before it times some constant number, called the 'common ratio'.
Examples: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ... has a common ratio of 2 because 2*2 = 4, and 4*2 = 8, and so on.
Also, --> 4, 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4/ 1/8, ... has a common ratio of 1/2 because
4 * 1/2 = the next term 2, and 2 * 1/2 = the next trem 1/4, and son on.
In this case, 3 * 2 = 6
6 * 2 = 12
12 * 2 = 24
The sequence <u>is</u> geometric and the common ratio is 2
Sometimes it helps to draw it out...

therefore, CM + MQ = CQ
17 + MQ = 21
MQ = 21 - 17
MQ = 4 <===
Answer:
4 (2 + 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
8 + 36
The greatest common factor is the highest number that divides a number:
8 and 36 ;
Factors of 8 : 1,2,4, 8
36 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 18, 36
The highest common factor is 4;
8 + 36 = 4 (2 + 9)
Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
3.85+2.75= 6.6
6.6÷0.30= 22
