Two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side. The perimeter of the triangle is 36 inch

Lostsunrise [7]

To solve this, you can set up an equation. Make the length of the shortest side x, so the 2 sides double the length will equal 2x. Since they all equal the perimeter of 36, do x + 2x + 2x =36. These values all represent the sides(2 longer, one short). Combine like terms to get 5x=36 then divide by 5 to find the value of x. x=7.2in meaning the shorter side is 7.2 inches while the longer sides are both 14.4 inches each since they are double in size.

Use the Ratio Test to determine the convergence or divergence of the series. If the Ratio Test is inconclusive, determine the co

Answer:

<h2>A. The series CONVERGES</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If $\sum a_n$ is a series, for the series to converge/diverge according to ratio test, the following conditions must be met.

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n}| = \rho$

If $\rho$ < 1, the series converges absolutely

If $\rho > 1$ , the series diverges

If $\rho = 1$ , the test fails.

Given the series $\sum\left\ {\infty} \atop {1} \right \frac{n^2}{5^n}$

To test for convergence or divergence using ratio test, we will use the condition above.

$a_n = \frac{n^2}{5^n} \\a_n_+_1 = \frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}}$

$\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = \frac{{\frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}}}}{\frac{n^2}{5^n} }\\\\ \frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = {{\frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}} * \frac{5^n}{n^2}\$

$\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = {{\frac{(n^2+2n+1)}{5^n*5^1}} * \frac{5^n}{n^2}\\$

aₙ₊₁/aₙ =

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{ n^2+2n+1}{5n^2}| \\\\Dividing\ through\ by \ n^2\\\\\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{ n^2/n^2+2n/n^2+1/n^2}{5n^2/n^2}|\\\\\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{1+2/n+1/n^2}{5}|\\\\$
