Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are being asked to compare the value of a growing infinite geometric series to a fixed constant. Such a series will always eventually have a sum that exceeds any given fixed constant.
__
<h3>a)</h3>
Angelina will get more money from the Choice 1 method of payment. The sequence of payments is a (growing) geometric sequence, so the payments and their sum will eventually exceed the alternative.
__
<h3>c)</h3>
For a first term of 1 and a common ratio of 2, the sum of n terms of the geometric series is given by ...
Sn = a1×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . . . . . . series with first term a1, common ratio r
We want to find n such that ...
Sn ≥ 1,000,000
1 × (2^n -1)/(2 -1) ≥ 1,000,000
2^n ≥ 1,000,001 . . . . add 1
n ≥ log(1,000,001)/log(2) . . . . . take the base-2 logarithm
n ≥ 19.93
The total Angelina receives from Choice 1 will exceed $1,000,000 after 20 days.
Answer: 22.5 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 20 parts yarn. This means that 3/20 of the carpet is silver. So in order to compare this to the 150 meters of total yarn, you would set up this equation:
3/20 = x/150
Next, you cross multiply:
3*150 = 20*x or simplified would be 450 = 20x
Next, you divide both sides by 20 to get x by itself.
450/20 = 22.5, so x is equal to 22.5
This means you have 22.5 yards of silver in the carpet.
Answer:
Pierre has enough boards and nails to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Step-by-step explanation:
13T+8C ≤ 220
Let us substitute 9 for T and 5 for C and check.
13(9) + 8(5) = 117 + 40
= 157 < 220
So, 220 wooden boards are sufficient to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
48T+37C ≤ 760
Substitute 9 for T and 5 for C.
48(9)+37(5) = 432 + 185
= 617 < 760
So, 760 nails are sufficient to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
Hence, Pierre has enough boards and nails to make 9 tables and 5 chairs.
