Answer:

x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 13 = 17

12x = 17 + 13

12x = 30 (divide both sides by 12 to get x)

12x/12 = 30/12

x = 2.5

S=a1/1-r

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an infinite geometric series. This has a sum of $\frac{a}{1-r}$

Where

a is the first term, and

r is the common ratio (one term divided by the previous term)

Let's figure out the first 2 terms by plugging in n = 1 first and then n = 2 for the series.

First term:

$3(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}\\=3(\frac{1}{4})^{1-1}\\=3(\frac{1}{4})^0\\=3(1)\\=3$

Second term:

$3(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}\\=3(\frac{1}{4})^{2-1}\\=3(\frac{1}{4})^1\\=3(\frac{1}{4})\\=\frac{3}{4}$

Let's see the common ratio: $\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{3}\\=\frac{3}{4}*\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{1}{4}$

Thus we have a = 3 and r = 1/4. Plugging into the formula of the infinite sum, we get:

$s=\frac{a}{1-4}=\frac{3}{1-\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{3}{\frac{3}{4}}=3*\frac{4}{3}=4$

So, the answer is 4

A useful rule of thumb called the "rule of 70" states that if something grows at a constant rate of z percent per year, it doubl

The answer is b. (70/z). If I put $100 into a savings account and the annual growth rate is 10%, the 70/10%= 7 years that the initial $100 would take to double.
