The rows add up to

, respectively. (Notice they're all powers of 2)
The sum of the numbers in row

is

.
The last problem can be solved with the binomial theorem, but I'll assume you don't take that for granted. You can prove this claim by induction. When

,

so the base case holds. Assume the claim holds for

, so that

Use this to show that it holds for

.



Notice that






So you can write the expansion for

as

and since

, you have

and so the claim holds for

, thus proving the claim overall that

Setting

gives

which agrees with the result obtained for part (c).
#2 is answer 4, #3 is answer 3, #4 is answer 4. The answer to #5 is 6xy if it is a possibility.
Answer:
It will take 10.63 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Present value (PV)= $4,000
Future Value (FV)= $10,000
Interest rate (i)= 9% annual compounded
<u>To calculate the time required to reach $10,000, we need to use the following formula:</u>
n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)
n= number of years
n= ln(10,000 / 4,000) / ln(1.09)
n= 10.63
It will take 10.63 years.
Amber plus 2 family members = 3 total people on the plan.
They share the minutes equally so divide the minutes by 3 to find how many she can use:
720 / 3 = 240 minutes per month.
Now divide the monthly minutes by 30 days:
240 / 30 = 8 minutes per day.
