There is no sum for this geometric series. it diverges rather than converges due to the absolute value of the common ratio (r), which is -3, being 3. for a geometric series to have a sum (to converge), the absolute value of r must be less than 1.
(you find r by dividing a2/a1, a3/a2, etc.)
hope this helps
Answer:
31.5 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
If Mel uses all 30 litres of yellow paint, then:
5 / 2 = 30 / x
5x = 60
x = 12
Mel would need 12 litres of blue paint, but she only has 9 litres. So the amount of yellow paint she needs is:
5 / 2 = x / 9
2x = 45
x = 22.5
Mel will use 22.5 litres of yellow paint with 9 litres of blue paint to make a total of 31.5 litres of green paint.
The 8 full boxes have 80 apples (8x10) and the 6 half boxes have 30 apples (6x5).
So: 80+30=110
Yes it can actually. If you take 1/2 and 1/2 for example, their product is 1/4.
