Answer:

cross-section

Step-by-step explanation:

prism is a type of three-dimensional (3D) shape with flat sides.

It has the same cross-section all along the shape from end to end; that means if you cut through it you would see the same 2D shape as on either end.

Below, enter x If the graph of the given equation is symmetric with respect to the x-axis, y if it is symmetric with respect to

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can tell by looking at the form of each equation.

y = tx

This is a straight line that passes through the origin, so it symmetric with respect to the origin.

y = x²+1

This is an up-opening parabola with vertex at (0,1), so it is symmetrical about the y-axis.

y = x²+x = (x+½)² - ¼

This is an up-opening parabola with vertex at (-½,-¼). Not symmetrical to either axis nor to the origin.

Can't tell what "y = (1 + x2)3" means. Which terms are exponents?

Evaluate the sum of the following finite geometric series.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{156}{125}\approx1.2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Method 1:</h3>

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^4\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}\\\\for\ n=1\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{1-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^0=1\\\\for\ n=2\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{2-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^1=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\for\ n=3\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{3-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^2=\dfrac{1}{25}\\\\for\ n=4\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{4-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^3=\dfrac{1}{125}$

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^4\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}=1+\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{25}+\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{125}{125}+\dfrac{25}{125}+\dfrac{5}{125}+\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{156}{125}$

<h3>Method 2:</h3>

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^4\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}\to a_n=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}\\\\\text{The formula of a sum of terms of a geometric series:}\\\\S_n=a_1\cdot\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r}\\\\r-\text{common ratio}\to r=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\\\\a_{n+1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n+1-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^n\\\\r=\dfrac{\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^n}{\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}}\qquad\text{use}\ \dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}\\\\r=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-(n-1)}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-n+1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^1=\dfrac{1}{5}$

$a_1=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{1-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^0=1$

$\text{Substitute}\ a_1=1,\ n=4,\ r=\dfrac{1}{5}:\\\\S_4=1\cdot\dfrac{1-\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^4}{1-\frac{1}{5}}=\dfrac{1-\frac{1}{625}}{\frac{4}{5}}=\dfrac{624}{625}\cdot\dfrac{5}{4}=\dfrac{156}{125}$
