What is the sum of the geometric series
lbvjy [14]
If S denotes the sum of the first n terms of a geometric series with first term a and common ratio r, then

S=a+ar+ar^2+\cdots+ar^{n-3}+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}
rS=ar+ar^2+ar^3+\cdots+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}+ar^n
\implies S-rS=a+(ar-ar)+(ar^2-ar^2)+\cdots+(ar^{n-1}-ar^{n-1})-ar^n
\implies (1-r)S=a(1-r^n)
\implies S=a=\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r}

Using summation notation, you have

S=\displaystyle\sum_{x=1}^nar^{x-1}=\sum_{x=0}^{n-1}ar^x=a\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r}

In this case, you have a=2, r=\dfrac12, and n=16. So the value of the sum is

\displaystyle\sum_{x=0}^{15}2\left(\frac14\right)^x=2\dfrac{1-\left(\frac14\right)^{16}}{1-\frac14}\approx2.67

Rounded to the nearest whole number, the answer would be 3.

Solve the equation. Check for extraneous solutions. Type your answers in the blanks. Show your work. |4x+3| = 9+2x
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|4x + 3| = 9 + 2x

We see the absolute value so we have to consider 2 cases:

(1)

4x + 3 = -9 - 2x

6x = -12

x = -2

(2)

4x + 3 = 9 + 2x

2x = 6

x = 3

Let's plug in both results.

|4(-2) + 3| = 9 + 2(-2)

|-5| = 9 - 4

5 = 5

Therefore x = -2 is a solution

|4(3) + 3| = 9 + 2(3)

|15| = 9 + 6

15 = 15

Therefore x = 3 is also a solution.

The minute hand of a clock is 3 inches long. How far does the tip of the minute hand move in 40 minutes​?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

  4π in ≈ 12.57 in

Step-by-step explanation:

One full revolution (2π radians) is made in 60 minutes. In 40 minutes, the hand moves through an angle θ of (40/60)(2π) = 4π/3 radians. The length of the arc is ...

  s = rθ = (3 in)(4π/3) = 4π in ≈ 12.57 in
