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

Whats 12*5+55= <br><br> ill mark asa brainliest
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
First do PEMDAS
There's no parenthesis. So move on to exponent. There's also no exponents. Move on to  multiplication. There it is. 

12×5=60.

There's no division so now next one is addition. Hey look! There is addition. 

60+55=115.

So 115 is your answer.

PLEASE HURRY WILL MARK BRAINIEST THIS IS AN EASY QUESTION
viva [34]

first qn

4/36=1/9

total no. of ways to roll a dice=36

no. of ways to produce 7=3

(1+6=7, 2+5=7, 3+4=7)

no. of ways to produce 11=1

(5+6=11)

there are 4 ways in total. 4/36 simplify it to be 1/9

second qn im not sure but i think its

1/9 x 50 = 50/9 = 5 x (5/9)

round it off to the smaller whole no. which is 5 so i think its 5 times in 50 trials

If a ramp has a slope less than 1 but greater than 0, is it steeper than a ramp with a slope of 1
allochka39001 [22]

No the larger the number the steeper the slope. 1 would be a steeper slope than a number less than 1.
