Answer:
x = 8
y = 138
Step-by-step explanation:
One way is to make them all decimals or all fractions:
.5 .2 .35 .48 .80 are the numbers above changed to decimals.
I will make them the same length (two digit past the decimal point) to compare
.50 .20 .35 .48 and .80
Now it is easy to put them in order
.2 .35 .48 .5 and .80
Let's put them into all fractions
5/10 1/5 35/100 12/25 and 4/5
Instead of finding a common denominator let's try this:
Think of them as test scores - the person who got 1 out 5 did the worst
Next came the person who got only 35 out of 100 - they only did better than the one above (1/5)
12/25 is almost 1/2 but a little below half the questions right
5/10 is exactly half the questions right (so it is bigger than 12/25 by a little).
4/5 is the best score (and the only one who passed).
So 1/5, 35/100, 12/25, .5 and 4/5 are in order least to greatest and match the answer above in bold.
It's an expression that can be simplified to read
( 0.7 x 0.4 ) ( b³ x b⁹ )
= ( 0.28 ) ( b¹² ) = 0.28 b¹² .
Answer:
One convergence criteria that is useful here is that, if aₙ is the n-th term of this sequence, then we must have:
Iaₙ₊₁I < IaₙI
This means that the absolute value of the terms must decrease as n increases.
Then we must have:

We can write this as:

If we assume that n is a really big number, then:
n + 1 ≈ 1
And we can write:

Then we have the inequality

And remember that this must be in absolute value, then we will have that:
-1 < (x - 2)/3 < 1
-3 < x - 2 < 3
-3 + 2 < x < 3 + 2
-1 < x < 5
The first option looks like this, but it uses the symbols ≤≥, so it is not the same as this, then the correct option will be the second.
