In mathematics, number sequencing of the same pattern are called progression. There are three types of progression: arithmetic, harmonic and geometric. The pattern in arithmetic is called common difference, while the pattern in geometric is called common ratio. Harmonic progression is just the reciprocal of the arithmetic sequence.

The common ratio is denoted as r. For values of r<1, the sum of the infinite series is equal to

S∞ = A₁/(1-r), where A1 is the first term of the sequence. Substituting A₁=65 and r=1/6:

S∞ = A₁/(1-r) = 65/(1-1/6)
S∞ = 78

NemiM [27]

Answer:

27/35 is the exact answer

7/10 is an estimate

Step-by-step explanation:

4/7+2/10

Simplify the fraction

4/7+1/5

The common denominator is 35

4/7*5/5 + 1/5 *7/7

20/35 + 7/35

27/35

To estimate

4/7 is close to 1/2  

2/10 is close is 1/5

1/2 + 1/5 =

5/10 + 2/10 = 7/10

BRAINLIEST HELP ME PLEASEEEEEE IM IN DANGER OF STAYING BACK:(((
Andrew [12]

Answer:

  • 24 ounces of solution B
  • 16 ounces of solution A

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest contributor of salt to the mix is the 45% solution (B), so we'll let our variable (b) represent the quantity of that. The total amount desired is 40 ounces, so the quantity of solution A is (40-b) ounces. Then the amount of salt in the mix is ...

  0.45b +0.20(40-b) = 0.35(40)

Simplifying and subtracting 0.20(40), we get ...

  0.25b = 0.15(40)

  b = 40(.15/.25) = 24

  (40-b) = 16

The scientist should use 24 ounces of Solution B and 16 ounces of Solution A.
