Solution :

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$           $a_n= \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n} \ \ \ \ \ a_{n+1}= \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(n+1) ! 2^{n+1}}$

Error = $|a_{n+1}|$

Error ≤ 0.0001

$|\frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!2^{n+1}}| \leq 0.0001$

$|\frac{1}{(n+1)!2^{n+1}}| \leq 10^{-4}$

$(n+1)! 2^{n+1} \geq 10000$

Now try, n ≥ 5

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$   = $\sum_{n=1 }^{5 } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$         (with error 0.0001)

 

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$   = $\frac{-1}{1!2}+\frac{1}{2!2^2}-\frac{1}{3! 2^3}+\frac{1}{4! 2^4}-\frac{1}{5! 2^5}$

$\sum_{n=1 }^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n}{n ! 2^n}$ = 0.6065104

3. Luke is a dog walker. He gets $12 per day for walking his neighbor's dogs. He recently snapped his surfboard and
cupoosta [38]

Answer: He'd have to work 15 days.

Step-by-step explanation

With the money in his bank account he'd have to get $173 to be able to pay for the rest of the board. If you were to divide 173 by 12 you'd get 14.4166666667. But you can't have a decimal so you'd round up to get a total of 180. Which is how you get the answer of him needing to work for 15 days.

What is the simplified form of the following expression? <br><br> ^3sqrt(4x/5)
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

= (∛(100x))/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression; ∛(4x/5)

To simplify this we need to make denominator a perfect cube.

So multiply and divide 25 inside the cube root, so that the denominator will become a perfect cube of 5.

∛(4x/5) = ∛((4x/5)×(25/25))

            = ∛(100x/125)

            = ∛(100x/5³)

            <u>= (∛100x)/5</u>
