What is the correct formula to find the sum of the finite geometric series below?

[tex]\displaystyle 2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{9} + \ ... \ + \frac{2}{3^6}[/tex]

Answers

Answer 1

We are given the Geometric Series:

[tex]2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{9} + \frac{2}{27} + \frac{2}{81} + \frac{2}{243} + \frac{2}{729}[/tex]

which can be rewritten as:

[tex]2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{3^{2} } + \frac{2}{3^{3}} + \frac{2}{3^{4}} + \frac{2}{3^{5}} + \frac{2}{3^{6}}[/tex]

here, we can see that every term is (1/3) times the last term

Hence, we can say that the common ratio of this Geometric Series is 1/3

Finding the Sum:

We know that the sum of a Geometric Series is:

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{a(r^{n}-1)}{r-1}[/tex]

(where r is the common ratio, a is the first term, and n is the number of terms)

another look at the given Geometric Series tells us that the first term is 2 and the number of terms is 7

plugging these values in the formula, we get:

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{2((1/3)^{7}-1)}{(1/3)-1}[/tex]

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{-1.99}{-0.67}[/tex]

Sₙ = 2.97

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \tt2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{ {3}^{2} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{3} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{4} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{5} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{6} } [/tex]

r = [tex]\tt{a_2 \div a_1}[/tex]

r = [tex]\tt{\frac{2}{3} \div 2}[/tex]

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

Soo :

[tex] \sf s_n = \frac{a( {r}^{n} - 1) }{r - 1} [/tex]

[tex] \sf s_7 = \frac{2(( \frac{1}{3} ) {}^{7 - 1} - 1) }{( \frac{1}{3} - 1) } [/tex]

[tex] \sf s_7 \approx \bold{ \underline{2.97}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 5.8 millimeters (mm) with a standard deviation of 0.14 mm. If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. The manufacturer measures the diameter in a sample of 12 spindles to determine whether the mean diameter has moved away from the required measurement. Suppose the sample has an average diameter of 5.88 mm. What are the null and alternative hypotheses (H0 = null hypothesis and Ha = alternative hypothesis)?
A. H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.
B. H0: Mean = 5 and Ha: Mean <5.
C. H0: Mean < 5 and Ha: Mean > 5.
D. H0: Mean = 5 and Ha: Mean > 5.

Answers

Answer: A. H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Definitions:

Null hypothesis [tex](H_0)[/tex] is a statement describing population parameters according to the objective of the study. It takes "≤,≥,=" signs.   Alternative hypothesis[tex](H_a)[/tex]  is a statement opposite to the null hypothesis elaborating population parameters according to the objective of the study. It takes ">, <, ≠" signs.

Given: The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 5.8 millimeters.

If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. so, Mean diameter ≠ 5.8 to work correctly.

i.e. [tex]H_a: \text{Mean}\neq 5.8[/tex]

So, [tex]H_a: \text{Mean =5.8}[/tex]

The required null and alternative hypotheses:

H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem states that [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex] where a and b are the two legs (the sides of the triangle that are adjacent to the right angle) and c is the hypotenuse (the longest side). This only applies to right triangles.

Plug 12 mi and 9 mi into [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex] as a and b.

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\12^2+9^2=c^2\\144+81=c^2\\225=c^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides

[tex]15=c[/tex]

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 15 miles.

b. m DUC + m VUA = m DUV
C. m MUC = m MUV = m VUA = m AUD
d. m CUA + m DUP = m PUM​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the options given, the only statement that is true of the figure shown is:

a. m<MUC - m<MUP = m<PUC

Rationale:

m<MUC = m<MUP + m<PUC (Angle Addition Postulate)

Subtract m<MUP from each side

m<MUC - m<MUP = m<PUC

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sin L = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\tan N = \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\cos L = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\sin N = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The above triangle

First, we calculate the length LM using Pythagoras theorem.

[tex]LN^2 = LM^2 + MN^2[/tex]

[tex]10^2 = LM^2 + 6^2[/tex]

[tex]100 = LM^2 + 36[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]LM^2 = 100 - 36[/tex]

[tex]LM^2 = 64[/tex]

Take positive square root

[tex]LM=8[/tex]

Solving (a): Sin L

[tex]\sin L = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\sin L = \frac{MN}{LN}[/tex]

[tex]\sin L = \frac{6}{10}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\sin L = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Solving (b): tan N

[tex]\tan N = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}[/tex]

[tex]\tan N = \frac{LM}{MN}[/tex]

[tex]\tan N = \frac{8}{6}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\tan N = \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Solving (c): cos L

This calculated as:

[tex]\cos L = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\cos L = \frac{LM}{LN}[/tex]

[tex]\cos L = \frac{8}{10}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\cos L = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Solving (d): sin N

This is calculated using:

If [tex]a + b = 90[/tex]

Then: [tex]\sin a = \cos b[/tex]

So:

[tex]\sin N = \cos L[/tex]

[tex]\sin N = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

NASA launches a test rocket with an initial velocity of 235 meters per second from an initial height of 15 meters above sea-level. Find a quadratic function that models the height of the rocket, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time t , in seconds after the launch. (HINT: 4.9 meters = 16 feet) Use your model to answer the following questions. Assuming that the rocket will splash down into the ocean, how many seconds after launch does splashdown occur? (round to the nearest tenth of one second) The rocket splashes down after seconds. What is the maximum height above sea-level attained by the rocket? (round to the nearest meter) The maximum height is meters above sea-level.

Answers

Answer:

48.0 seconds2833 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator shows the points of interest nicely.

  The rocket splashes down after 48.0 seconds.

  The maximum height is 2833 meters above sea level.

__

The equation for the motion is ...

  h(t) = -4.9t^2 +235t +15 . . . . launch at 235 m/s from height of 15 m

The vertex (maximum height) is found at ...

  t = -(235)/(2(-4.9)) = 235/9.8 ≈ 23.980 . . . seconds

Then the maximum height is ...

  h(23.980) = (-4.9(23.980) +235)(23.980) +15 ≈ 2833 . . . meters

The value of t when h(t) = 0 can be found using the quadratic formula.

  t = (-235 -√(235² -4(-4.9)(15)))/(2(-4.9)) = (-235 -√55519)/-9.8

  t ≈ 48.023 ≈ 48.0 . . . seconds

Answer:

  (b)  x +2y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The only offered line that includes the given point is ...

  x +2y = 8

__

We can check the other choices:

  x + 2y = 2 +2(3) = 2+6 = 8 . . . matches B (not A)

  2x +y = 2(2) +3 = 4+3 = 7 . . . . not a choice

_____

Getting there from scratch

The standard form equation for a line can be written from ...

  (y2 -y1)x -(x2 -x1)y = constant

  (-4 -0)x -(4 -(-4))y = constant . . . . using the given points (-4, 0) and (4, -4)

  -4x -8y = constant

For standard form, we need the leading coefficient to be positive, and we need common factors removed. We can get there by dividing by -4.

  x +2y = constant

The value of the constant will be whatever it takes for the given point to lie on the line. For (x, y) = (2, 3) to be a solution, we must have ...

 x +2y = (2) +2(3) = constant = 8

The desired line has the equation ...

  x +2y = 8

Find the value of f(4) for the function

Answers

Answer:

f(4) = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The notation for these type of problems is very confusing. Just remember that f(x) is the same thing as y (or some variable). Even if there is a number or something on the inside of the parentheses, it's still just a variable.

In our case

f(a) = 2(a + 4) -9

could be rewritten as

y = 2(a + 4) - 9

the thing on the inside of the parentheses signifies what the equation is dependent on.

so when is says f(4), it just want's you to trade out a for a 4, but the equation is still the same.

f(4) = 2((4) + 4) - 9

Now, just follow the order of operations

f(4) = 2(8) - 9

f(4) = 16 - 9

f(4) = 7
