Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
First you find what f(4) is equal to then you plug that into g(x), so in this situation f(4)=4 so we then look at g(4), which is equal to 0
Answer:
n = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
If the common ratio is r, then the term gn is ...
gn = 1·r^(n-1)
and the sum Gn is ...
Gn = 1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)
Using the given values for gn and Gn, we can write ...
r^n = r·gn
so ...
Gn = 97656 = (78125r -1)/(r -1)
Multiplying by r-1 gives
97656r -97656 = 78125r -1
19531r = 97655 . . . . . add 97656-78125r
r = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 19531
___
Now we can find the value of n. Let's use gn.
78125 = 5^(n-1) = 5^7
Matching exponents, we find ...
n -1 = 7
n = 8 . . . . . . add 1
The value of n is 8.
_____
<em>Comment on power of 5</em>
You can use logarithms to find what power of 5 gets you 78125. Taking the log of the above equation, you get
log(78125) = (n-1)log(5)
log(78125)/log(5) = n-1
7 = n -1 . . . . . . evaluate the ratio of the logs
3 % = 3 / 100 = 0.03
let number to be found = Y
of always means multiply
so....... 331 / 0.03 x Y = 57
11033.33 x Y = 57
Y = 57 / 11033.33
Y = 5.16 x 10 power -3
