Fiona has $18 to spend. She spent $4.25, including tax, to buy a notebook. She needs to save $9.75, but she wants to buy a snack

. If crackers cost $0.50 per package including tax, what inequality would show the maximum number of packages that Fiona can buy? Solve your inequality by showing your work and steps

18 - 4.25 = 13.75.
13.75 - 9.75 = what is left to spend, $4.00

<span>This means she can buy no more than 8 cracker packs.</span>

T. Gibbs has $250in a bank account and he plans to ad $15 a week. How many weeks will it take for him to save $400

saw5 [17]

Answer: 10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation: the first step is to subtract

400-250=150.

So he needs to save $150 to make $400.

Divide $150/$15 =10.

It means he has 10 weeks more to save for $150 to make $400.

Therefore the final answer is 10 weeks

Estimate the answer by rounding each fraction to the nearest whole number and then adding. 13 7/10 + 10 1/8

ExtremeBDS [4]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The rounded numbers are ...

13 7/10 = 13.7 ⇒ 14

10 1/8 = 10.125 ⇒ 10

The sum of the rounded numbers is 14 +10 = 24.

The estimate of the sum is 24.

Lim n→∞[(n + n² + n³ + .... nⁿ)/(1ⁿ + 2ⁿ + 3ⁿ +....nⁿ)]

Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

Given expression is

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - + {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - + {n}^{n} }$

To, evaluate this limit, let we simplify numerator and denominator individually.

So, Consider Numerator

$\rm :\longmapsto\:n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - - + {n}^{n}$

Clearly, if forms a Geometric progression with first term n and common ratio n respectively.

So, using Sum of n terms of GP, we get

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{n( {n}^{n} - 1)}{n - 1}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{ {n}^{n} - 1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{n} }$

Now, Consider Denominator, we have

$\rm :\longmapsto\: {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - - + {n}^{n}$

can be rewritten as

$\rm :\longmapsto\: {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - - + {(n - 1)}^{n} + {n}^{n}$

$\rm \: = \: {n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[{\dfrac{n - 1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[{\dfrac{n - 2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]$

$\rm \: = \: {n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]$

Now, Consider

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - + {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - + {n}^{n} }$

So, on substituting the values evaluated above, we get

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\dfrac{ {n}^{n} - 1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{n} }}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{ {n}^{n} - 1}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{ {n}^{n}\bigg[1 - \dfrac{1}{ {n}^{n} } \bigg]}{{n}^{n}\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\bigg[1 - \dfrac{1}{ {n}^{n} } \bigg]}{\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

$\rm \: = \: \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{\bigg[1 +\bigg[1 - {\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + \bigg[1 - {\dfrac{2}{n}\bigg]}^{n} + - - - + \bigg[{\dfrac{1}{n}\bigg]}^{n} \bigg]}$

Now, we know that,

$\red{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \displaystyle\lim_{x \to \infty} \bigg[1 + \dfrac{k}{x} \bigg]^{x} = {e}^{k}}}}$

So, using this, we get

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{1 + {e}^{ - 1} + {e}^{ - 2} + - - - - \infty }$

Now, in denominator, its an infinite GP series with common ratio 1/e ( < 1 ) and first term 1, so using sum to infinite GP series, we have

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{1 - \dfrac{1}{e} } }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{ \dfrac{e - 1}{e} } }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{e}{e - 1} }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{e - 1}{e}$

$\rm \: = \: 1 - \dfrac{1}{e}$

Hence,

$\boxed{\tt{ \displaystyle\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n + {n}^{2} + {n}^{3} + - - + {n}^{n} }{ {1}^{n} + {2}^{n} + {3}^{n} + - - + {n}^{n} } = \frac{e - 1}{e} = 1 - \frac{1}{e}}}$

2. New Merrick Bank charges a $21-per-check overdraft protection fee. On June 5,

dexar [7]

Answer:

Overdraft fee: He will pay $84 in over draft

How much he owe the bank: 1567.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Overdraft fee: He is gone 4 transactions over draft.

So 4 × $ 21 fee = $ 84

How much he owe the bank: his total withdrawal was 875.15+340.50+450.63+330+560=2556.28

Now he had his 989 in ac, So 2556.28-989=1567.28 is what he owe to bank
