sum of series 1 +1/3 +1/3².... is?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sum of the series is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 + 1/3 + 1/3^2 + ....

Required

The sum of the series

This implies that we calculate the sum to infinity.

We have:

[tex]a = 1[/tex] -- The first term

First, calculate the common ratio (r)

[tex]r = \frac{1}{3^2} / \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Change to product

[tex]r = \frac{1}{3^2} * \frac{3}{1}[/tex]

Solve

[tex]r = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

The sum of the series is then calculated as:

[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{a}{1 - r}[/tex]

[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{1}{1 - 1/3}[/tex]

Solve the denominator

[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{1}{2/3}[/tex]

Express as product

[tex]S_{\infty} = 1 * \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]S_{\infty} = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with Italian dressing. The Italian dressing contains 7% vinegar. The chef wants to make 310 milliliters of a mixture that contains 19% vinegar. How much vinegar and how much Italian dressing should she use?

Answers

Answer:

Amount of  vinegar. 100% : 20 milliliters

Amount of  Italian dressing: 140 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of  vinegar. 100%

Let's call B the amount of  Italian dressing . 12% vinegar

The resulting mixture should have 23%  vinegar, and 160 milliliters.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -1 and add it to the second equation:  We substitute the value of B into one of the two equations and solve for A.

Answer:

(-5, -30)

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the equation:

y = 6x

y = -4x - 50

Since both of them are equal to y, we can substitute the 6x into y. So:

6x = -4x - 50

Now we can solve for x. Add 4x to both sides...

6x = -4x - 50

+4x   +4x

10x = -50

Now, divide both sides by 10.

10x = -50

10      10

x = -5

So, we now know that x is -5. Now we know this, we can substitute -5 where we see x. It works in both equations, so I will do both.

y = 6(-5)

y = -30

And...

y = -4(-5) - 50

y = 20 - 50

y = -30

As you can see, both equations show that y = -30. To check our work, let's plug in the values.

-30 = 6(-5)

-30 = -30

Also:

-30 = -4(-5) - 50

-30 = -20 - 50

-30 = -30

So, we can see that both of the equations gave us the same answer. So, our answer is x = -5 and y = -30, so the ordered pair is: (-5, -30). Hope this helps you!

The incomes in a certain large population of college teachers have a normal distribution with mean $75,000 and standard deviation $8,000. Sixteen teachers are selected at random from this population to serve on a committee. What is the probability that their average salary is more than $77,500?

Answers

Answer:

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that their average salary is more than $77,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean $75,000 and standard deviation $8,000.

This means that [tex]\mu = 75000, \sigma = 8000[/tex]

Sample of 16

This means that [tex]n = 16, s = \frac{8000}{\sqrt{16}} = 2000[/tex]

What is the probability that their average salary is more than $77,500?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 77500. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{77500 - 75000}{2000}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8944

1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that their average salary is more than $77,500.

D) y = 4213x+ 3

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Angie already has a fixed number of antiques - 4213 antiques. the rate of increase of ducks would depend on the number of weekends. this is the variable number of antiques

thus the equation is :

A student divided f(x) = 3x^3 + 8x^2 + 5x – 4 by x + 2 and found the remainder was r = -6. Based
on the remainder theorem, what can be concluded about f(x)?

Answers

Answer:a

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (-2, -6) lies on the graph of a function f(x) if the f(x) = 3x^3 + 8x^2 + 5x – 4 divided by x + 2 and found the remainder was r = -6 option fourth is correct.

What is polynomial?

Polynomial is the combination of variables and constants in a systematic manner with "n" number of power in ascending or descending order.

[tex]\rm a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+a_4x^4..........a_nx^n[/tex]

Let's suppose the divisor is Q

Then from the remainder theorem:

f(x) = (x+2)Q -6

[tex]\rm 3x^3+8x^2+5x-4=(x+2)Q-6[/tex]

If we put x = -2, then

[tex]\rm 3(-2)^3+8(-2)^2+5(-2)-4=(-2+2)Q-6[/tex]

[tex]\rm 3\times-8+8\times4-10-4=-6[/tex]

-24 + 32 -10 -4 = -6

-6 = -6

It means (-2, -6) lies on the function(also refer the graph of the function)

Thus, the point (-2, -6) lies on the graph of a function f(x) if the f(x) = 3x^3 + 8x^2 + 5x – 4 divided by x + 2 and found the remainder was r = -6 option fourth is correct.
