Sum of an infinite geometric sequence with the common ratio r, and the first term a1 is
we notice
-2 times -1/4=1/2,
1/2 times -1/4=-1/8
so a1=-2
r=-1/4 or -0.25
so the sum is
=
=
=
=
the sum is -8/5 or -1.6
Have you tried multiplying 5(3)+2(2)+1?
15 + 4 + 1 = 20 ?
Im sorry I'm not real good with math.
hi,
Express the ratios in fractional form, that is
= ( cross- multiply )
y + 3 = k(y + 5) ← distribute
y + 3 = ky + 5k ( subtract ky from both sides )
y - ky + 3 = 5k ( subtract 3 from both sides )
y - ky = 5k - 3 ← factor out y from each term on the left side
y(1 - k) = 5k - 3 ← divide both sides by (1 - k)
y = 5k- 3
____
1 - k
Answer:
B is the correct answer :))
because she's doing the math so that there are 40 plants in each row. So, she's trying to figure out how many rows she will need. When she does the math for 40 plants in each row, she ends up with 193 rows, and 25 corn plants left over
