1 + i + i ² + i ³ + i ⁴ + i ⁵ = 1 + i + i ² (1 + i + i ² + i ³)

… = 1 + i + i ² (1 + i + i ² (1 + i ))

… = 1 + i + (-1) (1 + i + (-1) (1 + i ))

… = 1 + i + (-1) (1 + i - 1 - i )

… = 1 + i

Alternatively, notice that

1 - i ⁶ = (1 - i ) (1 + i + i ² + i ³ + i ⁴ + i ⁵)

so that

1 + i + i ² + i ³ + i ⁴ + i ⁵ = (1 - i ⁶) / (1 - i )

Now, i ⁶ = (i ²)³ = (-1)³ = -1, so

1 + i + i ² + i ³ + i ⁴ + i ⁵ = (1 - (-1)) / (1 - i )

… = 2 / (1 - i )

Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of 1 - i :

… = 2 (1 + i ) / ((1 - i ) (1 + i ))

… = 2 (1 + i ) / (1² - i ²)

… = 2 (1 + i ) / (1 + 1)

… = 1 + i

The break-even point is closest to $50,846.

Let understand that the break-even point refers to the point where the total revenue equals the total costs.

Below are steps to help us derive the break-even point.

Particulars R38T X08S Total

Sales $20,000 $39,000 $59,000

Variable costs $7,400 $6,170 $13,570

Contribution margin $12,600 $32,830 $45,430

Total Contribution margin ratio = Total Contribution / Total Sales

Total Contribution margin ratio = $33,150 / $51,000

Total Contribution margin ratio = 0.65

Total Contribution margin ratio = 65%

Break even point = Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio

Break even point = $33,050 / 0.65

Break even point = $50,846

In conclusion, the break-even point for the entire company is closest to $50,846.

The design of a new computer processor requires that electric current be carefully controlled. Why might an engineer want to use

Leya [2.2K]

Because metalloids are semiconductors. The fact that metalloids are brittle/shiny are only physical characteristics and wouldn’t be the reason why a metalloid would be helpful for designing a new computer processor. Amphoteric means that it’s able to react both as a base and as an acid, but since the computer processor has to have something to do with electricity, the second option would be the answer. Semiconductors are also helpful for electrical circuits, so that’s also why is would be best for the new computer processor.

What are the things you must do in the order to get full credit for the day?

pashok25 [27]

You need to make at least the minimum payment each month, even during an interest-free period. Set up a Direct Debit for the full monthly balance, or for as much as you can afford to repay. This will mean you don’t miss a payment, which could lead to unwanted charges and the loss of any introductory rate. Missing payments could also damage your credit rating.
You’ll have a credit assessment by the card provider when you apply, which will usually include checking your credit reference file. A good credit rating will improve your chances of a successful credit application. It could also give you access to cards offering the lowest interest rates and/or promotional offers.
You need to be at least 18 to apply for a credit card. With some cards the minimum age is 21.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

T is time, so replace t with 2 seconds and solve:

-16(2)^2 + 48(2)

-16(4) + 96

-64 + 96 = 32

The ball is 32 feet high in 2 seconds
