Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
A direct variation is of the form
y = kx
We know x and y so we can find k
81 = k *27
Divide each side by 27
81/27 = 27k/27
3=k
The constant of variation is 3
Answer:
there are 6 dogs
Step-by-step explanation:
x = dogs
x= 2 + 4
x = 6
40% of 85 is 34 so 85-34=51
51 is your answer
All three series converge, so the answer is D.
The common ratios for each sequence are (I) -1/9, (II) -1/10, and (III) -1/3.
Consider a geometric sequence with the first term <em>a</em> and common ratio |<em>r</em>| < 1. Then the <em>n</em>-th partial sum (the sum of the first <em>n</em> terms) of the sequence is

Multiply both sides by <em>r</em> :

Subtract the latter sum from the first, which eliminates all but the first and last terms:

Solve for
:

Then as gets arbitrarily large, the term
will converge to 0, leaving us with

So the given series converge to
(I) -243/(1 + 1/9) = -2187/10
(II) -1.1/(1 + 1/10) = -1
(III) 27/(1 + 1/3) = 18
