The shadows of two vertical poles were measured at the same time to be 6m and 15m long. If the first pole is 8cm long, find the

Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Shadow of vertical poles : 6m ; 15m

Length of poles : 8cm ; h

8cm long pole = shadow length, 6m

h cm long pole = shadow length, 15 m

Using cross multiplication :

8cm * 15 m = h cm * 6m

120 = 6h

h = 120 / 6

h = 20 cm

Height of second pole = 20cm

1. Alexis went shopping for school supplies with $80 in his bank account. He bought a bunch of binders for $23, pens and pencils
masha68 [24]

Answer: So alexis had $80 And he bought a bunch of binders for $23 So If you do the math you will get: $57 But then he buys pens and pencils for $16 So:

$57 - $16 = $41 And then he buys a new backpack for $37. So : $41 - $37 = $4

So yes he had enough to buy all the stuff and still had a little bit leftover!

Hope this helps!

Determine determine whether the following geometric series converges or diverges. if the series converges find its sum.
Lilit [14]

For starters,

\dfrac{3^k}{4^{k+2}}=\dfrac{3^k}{4^24^k}=\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^k

Consider the nth partial sum, denoted by S_n:

S_n=\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)+\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^2+\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^3+\cdots+\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^n

Multiply both sides by \frac34:

\dfrac34S_n=\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^2+\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^3+\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^4+\cdots+\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^{n+1}

Subtract S_n from this:

\dfrac34S_n-S_n=\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)^{n+1}-\dfrac1{16}\left(\dfrac34\right)

Solve for S_n:

-\dfrac14S_n=\dfrac3{64}\left(\left(\dfrac34\right)^n-1\right)

S_n=\dfrac3{16}\left(1-\left(\dfrac34\right)^n\right)

Now as n\to\infty, the exponential term will converge to 0, since r^n\to0 if 0. This leaves us with

\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\lim_{n\to\infty}\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{3^k}{4^{k+2}}=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{3^k}{4^{k+2}}=\frac3{16}
