Answer:

See explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is subtraction

whole numbers, then numerators.

6 - 2 = 4

1/2 - 3/8

= 4/8 - 3/8 (1/2 = 4/8)

= 1/8

= 4 1/8

hope this helps!

All we can determine from the information that you have given us is that

yz should be proportionally related to bc, because their triangles are similar.

For the following telescoping series, find a formula for the nth term of the sequence of partial sums {Sn}. Then evaluate limn→[

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given value:

$1) \sum ^{\infty}_{k = 1} \frac{1}{k+1} - \frac{1}{k+2}\\\\2) \sum ^{\infty}_{k = 1} \frac{1}{(k+6)(k+7)}$

Solve point 1 that is $\sum ^{\infty}_{k = 1} \frac{1}{k+1} - \frac{1}{k+2}\\\\$ :

when,

$k= 1 \to s_1 = \frac{1}{1+1} - \frac{1}{1+2}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3}\\\\$

$k= 2 \to s_2 = \frac{1}{2+1} - \frac{1}{2+2}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{4}\\\\$

$k= 3 \to s_3 = \frac{1}{3+1} - \frac{1}{3+2}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{5}\\\\$

$k= n^ \to s_n = \frac{1}{n+1} - \frac{1}{n+2}\\\\$

Calculate the sum $(S=s_1+s_2+s_3+......+s_n)$

$S=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{5}+.....\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}\\\\$

$=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}\\\\$

When $s_n \ \ dt_{n \to 0}$

$=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{0+1}-\frac{1}{0+2}\\\\=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{2}\\\\= 1 -\frac{1}{5}\\\\= \frac{5-1}{5}\\\\= \frac{4}{5}\\\\$

$\boxed{\text{In point 1:} \sum ^{\infty}_{k = 1} \frac{1}{k+1} - \frac{1}{k+2} =\frac{4}{5}}$

In point 2: $\sum ^{\infty}_{k = 1} \frac{1}{(k+6)(k+7)}$

when,

$k= 1 \to s_1 = \frac{1}{(1+6)(1+7)}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{7 \times 8}\\\\= \frac{1}{56}$

$k= 2 \to s_1 = \frac{1}{(2+6)(2+7)}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{8 \times 9}\\\\= \frac{1}{72}$

$k= 3 \to s_1 = \frac{1}{(3+6)(3+7)}\\\\$

$= \frac{1}{9 \times 10} \\\\ = \frac{1}{90}\\\\$

$k= n^ \to s_n = \frac{1}{(n+6)(n+7)}\\\\$

calculate the sum: $S= s_1+s_2+s_3+s_n\\$

$S= \frac{1}{56}+\frac{1}{72}+\frac{1}{90}....+\frac{1}{(n+6)(n+7)}\\\\$

when $s_n \ \ dt_{n \to 0}$

$S= \frac{1}{56}+\frac{1}{72}+\frac{1}{90}....+\frac{1}{(0+6)(0+7)}\\\\= \frac{1}{56}+\frac{1}{72}+\frac{1}{90}....+\frac{1}{6 \times 7}\\\\= \frac{1}{56}+\frac{1}{72}+\frac{1}{90}+\frac{1}{42}\\\\=\frac{45+35+28+60}{2520}\\\\=\frac{168}{2520}\\\\=0.066$

$\boxed{\text{In point 2:} \sum ^{\infty}_{k = 1} \frac{1}{(n+6)(n+7)} = 0.066}$

The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle described is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h]

<h3>How to determine the range of speed associate to desired gas mileages</h3>

In this question we have a <em>quadratic</em> function of the <em>gas</em> mileage (g), in miles per gallon, in terms of the <em>vehicle</em> speed (v), in miles per hour. Based on the information given in the statement we must solve for v the following <em>quadratic</em> function:

g = 10 + 0.7 · v - 0.01 · v² (1)

An effective approach consists in using a <em>graphing</em> tool, in which a <em>horizontal</em> line (g = 20) is applied on the <em>maximum desired</em> mileage such that we can determine the <em>speed</em> intervals. The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h].
