Do you mean what does infinity + infinity equals to? If so, infinity + infinity = infinity.
If the 1 were underlined it would be 10,000
If the 6 were underlined it would be 6,000
If the 4 were underlined it would be 400
If the 0 were underlined it would be 0
If the 3 were underlined it would be 3
an = a1r^(n-1)
a5 = a1 r^(5-1)
-6 =a1 r^4
a2 = a1 r^(2-1)
-48 = a1 r
divide
-6 =a1 r^4
---------------- yields 1/8 = r^3 take the cube root or each side
-48 = a1 r 1/2 = r
an = a1r^(n-1)
an = a1 (1/2)^ (n-1)
-48 = a1 (1/2) ^1
divide by 1/2
-96 = a1
an = -96 (1/2)^ (n-1)
the sum
Sn = a1[(r^n - 1/(r - 1)]
S18 = -96 [( (1/2) ^17 -1/ (1/2 -1)]
=-96 [ (1/2) ^ 17 -1 /-1/2]
= 192 * [-131071/131072]
approximately -192
The answer is 0. While the answer for n is approximately 2.384503, there are no EXTRANEOUS solutions. Again, the answer is a.) 0
(1.2×10^2) + (3.04×10^5)
They must be to the same power to add
3.04 *10^5 to change to the 2nd power (5-2=3) move the decimal 3 places to the right = 3040. * 10^2
1.2 * 10^2 + 3040 *10^2=
add the numbers keep the exponents the same
3041.2 * 10^2
there can only be 1 number before the decimal in scientific notation so we need to move the decimal 3 places to the left, which adds 3 to the exponent
3.0412 * 10 ^ (2+3)
3.0412 * 10^5
