Three pounds of lawn seed covers 1800 square feet how many 4 pound bags are needed to cover 8400 square feet.

7 0

You need to find the unit rate of 3 : 1800 first by dividing 1800 and 3

1800 ÷ 3 = 600

So this means for every 1 pound bag it covers 600 square feet. You now need to multiply 600 and 4 to see how many square feet 4 pounds cover.

600 × 4 = 2400

So each 4 pounds covers 2400 sq ft. Now you have to divide 8400 and 2400 to find how many bags of 4 pounds you need

8400 ÷ 2400= 3.5

You need 3.5 bags of 4 pounds.
Technically you would need 4 bags because you’d have to round it up.

Hope this helps you!! :)

Use any of the methods to determine whether the series converges or diverges. Give reasons for your answer.

Answer:

It means $\sum_{n=1}^\inf} = \frac{7n^2-4n+3}{12+2n^6}$ also converges.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual Series is::

$\sum_{n=1}^\inf} = \frac{7n^2-4n+3}{12+2n^6}$

The method we are going to use is comparison method:

According to comparison method, we have:

$\sum_{n=1}^{inf}a_n\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \sum_{n=1}^{inf}b_n$

If series one converges, the second converges and if second diverges series, one diverges

Now Simplify the given series:

Taking"n^2"common from numerator and "n^6"from denominator.

$=\frac{n^2[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{n^6[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]} \\\\=\frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{n^4[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}$

$\sum_{n=1}^{inf}a_n=\sum_{n=1}^{inf}\frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \sum_{n=1}^{inf}b_n=\sum_{n=1}^{inf} \frac{1}{n^4}$

Now:

$\sum_{n=1}^{inf}a_n=\sum_{n=1}^{inf}\frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}\\ \\\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n = \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}\\=\frac{7-\frac{4}{inf}+\frac{3}{inf}}{\frac{12}{inf}+2}\\\\=\frac{7}{2}$
