Consider the geometric series S(x)=1+2(x−3)+4(x−3)^2+8(x−3)^3+⋯
Giving your answer as an interval, find all values of x for which the series converges.
Now assuming that x is in your interval above, find a simple formula for S(x).
Answer:
-a - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
3(a-2)+4(3-a)-10
3a - 6 + 12 - 4a - 10
-a - 4
Answer:
B and C
Step-by-step explanation:
They're congruent
Answer:
e. 10√30
Step-by-step explanation:
In this right triangle geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. This means that the ratio of long side to hypotenuse is the same for all triangles:
x/(10+50) = 50/x
Multiplying by 60x, we have ...
x^2 = 3000
x = 10√30 . . . . . take the square root. Matches choice E.

<em>Comment on estimating</em>
You're looking for x. Examining the figure, you see that x is the long side of the triangle with hypotenuse 10+50=60, so it will be shorter than that value. x is also the hypotenuse of the triangle with long side 50. So, x will be longer than 50.
The only answer choice with a value between 50 and 60 is choice E.
You don't even need to know how to find x. You only need to know that the hypotenuse is the longest side in a right triangle.
You add 7+5 together to get 12, then you multiply 12 by 6 and get 72, then you add the 3 to 72 and get 75. 6(7+5)+3. Hope this helps with the problem!!
