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.

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? If so, model the data with an equation.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Therefore the equation of the line through ( -7 , 5 ) and ( -5 , 9) is

Linear Relationship i.e $y-5=2(x+7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let,

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -7, 5 )

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (-5, 9)

To Find:

Equation of Line AB =?

Solution:

Equation of a line passing through Two points A( x₁ , y₁) and B( x₂ , y₂)is given by the formula

$(y - y_{1} )=(\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} })\times(x-x_{1}) \\$

Substituting the given values in a above equation we get

$(y-(5))=(\frac{9-(5)}{-5--7})\times (x--7)\\ \\(y-5)=\frac{4}{2}(x+7)\\\\y-5=2(x+7)...............\textrm{which is the required equation of the line AB}$

Therefore the equation of the line through ( -7 , 5 ) and ( -5 , 9 ) is

Linear Relationship i.e $y-5=2(x+7)$

The state of New Jersey makes approximately $1.55 billion annually from tolls of the $1.55 billion about 3/4 comes from tolls on

Rama09 [41]

Percent of turn pike is 75% and percent of parkway is 25%.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, The state of New Jersey makes approximately $1.55 billion annually from tolls of the $1.55 billion

About $\frac{3}{4}$ comes from tolls on the turnpike

Remaining $\frac{1}{4}$ comes from tolls on the parkway

<em><u>To find the percent of the total revenue from turnpike:</u></em>

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent of turnpike }=\frac{\text { amount from parkway }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{3}{4} \text { of total revenue }}{\text { tot al revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{3}{4} \times \text { total revenue }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{3}{4} \times 100=3 \times 25=75 \%}\end{array}$

<em><u>To find the percent of the total revenue from parkway:</u></em>

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent of parkway }=\frac{\text { amount from parkway }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \text { of total revenue }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \times \text { total revenue}}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{1}{4} \times 100=25 \%}\end{array}$

<em><u>Summarizing the results:</u></em>

Percent of turn pike is 75%

Percent of parkway is 25%
