Answer:

ok so if we take length to be x we know width is x-3

the perimeter is the total length of sides, if you look at a rectangle you can see it has 4 sides with 2 length and 2 width. so perimeter is 2 times (x + x-3) = 26.

2x -3 = 13, 2x = 16, x = 8, 8 is length

the width is then 8-3 = 5.

Length = 8, width = 5.

What is the value of the sum of all the terms of the geometric series 300, 60, 12, …?
ruslelena [56]
<h3>Answer:   375</h3>

=========================================

Work Shown:

a = 300 = first term

r = 60/300 = 0.2 = common ratio

We multiply each term by 0.2, aka 1/5, to get the next term.

Since -1 < r < 1 is true, we can use the infinite geometric sum formula below

S = a/(1-r)

S = 300/(1-0.2)

S = 300/0.8

S = 375

----------

As a sort of "check", we can add up partial sums like so

  • 300+60 = 360
  • 300+60+12 = 360+12 = 372
  • 300+60+12+2.4 = 372+2.4 = 374.4
  • 300+60+12+2.4+0.48 = 374.4+0.48 = 374.88

and so on. The idea is that each time we add on a new term, we should be getting closer and closer to 375. I put "check" in quotation marks because it's probably not the rigorous of checks possible. But it may give a good idea of what's going on.

----------

Side note: If the common ratio r was either r < -1 or r > 1, then the terms we add on would get larger and larger. This would mean we don't approach a single finite value with the infinite sum.
