What is the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with a = 10 andr
= 1/5?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.496

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, to calculate the sum of the first five terms of the series, we use the formula for the sum of terms in a geometric series.

Mathematically, that would be;

Sn = a(1-r^n)/1-r

where Sn = ?

a = 10

r = 1/5 = 0.2

n = 5

Substituting these values into the equation above, we have;

Sn = 10(1-(0.2)^5)/1-0.2

Sn = 10(0.99968)/0.8

Sn = 12.496

if f(x)=1/2x-2 what is f(14)

Answers

Answer:

Hi there!

The correct answer is: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially they replace x with 14, so all you have to do is plug 14 into the equation. 14 multiplied by 1/2 is 7, because it's the same thing as 14 divided by 2. Then you minus 2 from 7, and you get 5.

Simplify 14x+5[6-(2x+3)]

Answers

Answer:

4x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 14x + 5[6 - (2x + 3)]

  = 14x + 5[6 - 2x - 3]

  = 14x + 30 - 10x - 15

  = (14x - 10x ) + (30 - 15)

  = 4x + 15

Given a function, describe how to find the average rate of change over a given interval.

Answers

Answer:

To find the average rate of change, we divide the change in the output value by the change in the input value. The Greek letter Δ (delta) signifies the change in a quantity; we read the ratio as “delta-y over delta-x” or “the change in y divided by the change in x”.

Answer:

Find the average rate of change of the function

A General Note: Rate of Change

The units on a rate of change are “output units per input units.” The average rate of change between two input values is the total change of the function values (output values) divided by the change in the input values.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Combination (as in permutation vs combination) question the symbol (n r) refers to "n choose r". This is sometimes written as nCr

i.e the question is asking you to find how many combinations each will yield when you chose r items from n item without repetition and order does not matter.

I will only do the first question for you and you can just follow the same steps to solve the rest of the questions.

Recall that

[tex]nCr=\frac{n!}{(r!)(n-r)!}[/tex]

Consider question a) we are given (5 1) or ₅C₁

we can see that n = 5 and r = 1

If we substitute this into the formula:

₅C₁ = (5!) / [ (1!)(5- 1)!]

= (5!) / [ (5- 1)!]

= (5!) / (4!)

= (5·4·3·2·1) / (4·3·2·1)

= 5

hence ₅C₁ = 5

(a) 5

B. y-1= 5/4 (x-1)

C. y-5= 1/4 (x-1)

D. y= 1/4 (x-5)

Answers

Answer:

A. y = 5/4(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line can be written in the form:

[tex]\frac{y - y_1}{x - x_1} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

From the points given,

y1 = 0

y2 = 5

x1 = 1

x2 = 5

Therefore:

[tex]\frac{y - 0}{x - 1}= \frac{5 - 0}{5 - 1} \\\\\frac{y}{x - 1} = \frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

4y = 5(x - 1)

y = 5/4(x - 1)

A. y = 5/4(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line can be written in the form:

From the points given,

y1 = 0

y2 = 5

x1 = 1

x2 = 5

Therefore:

Cross multiply:

Given f(x) = 4x3 − 12x2 + 40x + 12, find f(–2).

Answers

Hey there! :)

Answer:

f(-2) = -148.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate f(-2), simplify substitute -2 for x in the equation. Therefore:

f(x) = 4x³ -12x² + 40x + 12

Becomes:

f(-2) = 4(-2)³ - 12(-2)² + 40(-2) + 12

Simplify:

f(-2) = 4(-8) - 12(4) - 80 + 12

f(-2) = -32 - 48 -80 + 12

Finally, you get:

f(-2) = -148.

TR = 84 feet

To find:

[tex]\angle R = ?[/tex]

Solution:

Here, we can use trigonometric formula to find out the [tex]\angle R[/tex].

We know that formula for tangent of angle [tex]\theta[/tex] is given as:

Here, Perpendicular for [tex]\angle R[/tex] is side ST and

Base is side TR.

Putting the values in above tangent formula:

[tex]tan R = \dfrac{ST}{TR}\\\Rightarrow tan R = \dfrac{44}{84}\\\Rightarrow tan R = 0.523\\\Rightarrow \angle R = 27.6^\circ[/tex]

A rectangle has a width that is 3cm less than its length. The perimeter of the rectangle is 22cm. What is the length and width of the rectangle? Please use problem solving algebraically and explain your answer so i can give you the brainliest. :)

Answers

Answer:

The length is 7 and the width is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = l-3

P =2( l+w)

22 = 2( l+ l-3)

Combine like terms

22 = 2(2l-3)

Divide each side by 2

22/2 = 2/2 (2l-3)

11 = 2l-3

Add 3 to each  side

11+3 = 2l-3+3

14 = 2l

Divide each side by 2

14/2 =2l/2

7 = l

Now find w

w = l-3

w = 7-3 = 4

Answer: length = 7 cm

Width = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2 (l + w)

22 = 2 ( l + l-3)

22=2 (2l - 3)

22=4l - 6

22+6 = 4l

4l = 28/4

l = 28/1 = 7 = length

In the past, the company has always purchased its cars from a dealer and then sold the cars after three years of use. The companys present fleet of cars is three years old and will be sold very shortly. To provide a replacement fleet, the company is considering two alternatives: Purchase alternative: The company can purchase the cars, as in the past, and sell the cars after three years of use. Ten cars will be needed, which can be purchased at a discounted price of $27,000 each. If this alternative is accepted, the following costs will be incurred on the fleet as a whole: Annual cost of servicing, taxes, and licensing $ 4,300 Repairs, first year $ 2,200 Repairs, second year $ 4,700 Repairs, third year $ 6,700At the end of three years, the fleet could be sold for one-half of the original purchase price.Lease alternative: The company can lease the cars under a three-year lease contract. The lease cost would be $70,000 per year (the first payment due at the end of Year 1). As part of this lease cost, the owner would provide all servicing and repairs, license the cars, and pay all the taxes.
