The sum to infinity of a geometric series is 4 and the second term is 1. Find the first,third and fourth terms.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2, 0.5 and 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term an = a1r^(n-1)  where a1 = first term and r = the common ratio.

The sum to infinity = a1/(1-r)  for  -1 < r < 1.

So we have:

Second term a2 = 1 = a1(r)(2-1) = a1r and

4 = a1/(1 - r)

From the first equation:

a1 =1/r

So substituting in the second equation:

4 = 1/ r / (1 - r)

4 = 1 / r - r^2

4r - 4r^2 = 1

4r^2 - 4r + 1 = 0

(2r - 1)(2r - 1) = 0

r = 0.5

So the first term  a1 = 1/ r =1/0.5 = 2.

The third = 1*0.5 = 0.5

and the 4th = 0.5*0.5 = 0.25.

The Jacksons are taking out a $35,000 loan to remodel their home. The tables below show the rates for a 1-year and 5-year loan from two different lenders. Complete each table to calculate the total repayment and interest paid for each loan offer.

Answers

Answer:

look at the screenshot

Step-by-step explanation:

look at the screenshot

The table for total repayment and interest paid for each loan offer:

Loan offer Interest rate Total repayment Total interest paid

1-year loan 6.5%         $37,275                 $2,275

5-year loan 8.2%         $41,570                 $6,570

What is simple interest?

Simple interest is an amount which is calculated for a certain period of time and for a certain rate, in simple interest calculation there are three factors which we consider: principal amount(P), rate(R) and time(T).

Formula;    Simple Interest(I) =  P × R × T/100

For the 1-year loan, the total repayment and total interest paid can be calculated as follows:

Total repayment = Principal + Interest = $35,000 + (0.065 x $35,000)

                                                               = $37,275

Total interest paid = $37,275 - $35,000

                               = $2,275

For the 5-year loan, the total repayment and total interest paid can be calculated as follows:

Total repayment = Principal + Interest

                            = $35,000 + (0.082 x $35,000 x 5)                

                            = $41,570

Total interest paid = $41,570 - $35,000 = $6,570

Loan offer Interest rate Total repayment Total interest paid

1-year loan 6.5%         $37,275                 $2,275

5-year loan 8.2%         $41,570                 $6,570

Suppose the mean height in inches of all 9th grade students at one high school is estimated. The population standard deviation is inches. The heights of 10 randomly selected students are 75,62,69,65,66,64,67,70,74 and 63.

Answers

Answer:

The population mean = sample mean = x`= 67.5

Population standard deviation = 13.369

Sample standard deviation= 4.225

Step-by-step explanation:

AS the population mean is not given we will calculate it from the sample.

The mean of the sampling distribution is equal to the population mean .

The sample mean is calculated by

x`= ∑x/n= 75,+ 62, +69,+65,+66,+64, +67,+70,+74 + 63/10

x`=675/10= 67.5

The standard deviation of the sample is equal to

u = σ/ √n   where σ is the population standard deviation and n is the number of observations.

Calculating the sample mean

s= √∑xi²/n- (∑x/n)²

s= √(45741/10)- (675/10)²

s= 4.2249

σ= u*√n= 4.229 *√10

σ=13.360

The interest added at the end of the year is $10, The total goal of O’Neill Raiders fundraiser is $2500 and Sameer scored better than 507 students.

What is Percentage?

Percentage is the parts of a number per fraction of 100. We can divide a number with it's whole and then multiply with 100 to calculate the percentage of any number.

Initial amount, P = $250

Rate of interest, r = 4% = 0.04

Interest amount = P × r × t, where t is the number of years = 1 here.

                          = 250 × 0.04 × 1

                          = $10

28% of the total fundraising goal = $700

Let x be the total fundraising goal.

28% × x = 700

0.28x = 700

x = 700 / 0.28 = $2500

Total number of students = 650

Sameer scored better than 78% of all students.

Number of students that Sameer scored better = 78% × 650

                                                                               = 0.78 × 650

                                                                               = 507

Answer: A) 20.9 ; B) 34years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

AGE (X) - - - - - - - 19 - -20 - - - 21 - - - 22 - - - 23

FREQUENCY (F) - 2 - - 3 - - - - 1 - - - - 4 - - - - 1

A)

MEAN(X) = [AGE(X) × FREQUENCY (F)] ÷ SUM OF FREQUENCY

F*X = [(19 * 2) + (20 * 3) + ( 21 * 1)+(22 * 4)+(23 * 1)]

= 38 + 60 +21 + 88 + 23 = 230

SUM OF FREQUENCY = 2 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 1= 11

MEAN(X) = 230 / 11

X = 20.9

B)

WHEN A NEW PLAYER WAS ADDED :

MEAN (X) = 22

Let age of new player = y

Sum of Ages = 19 + 19 +20 + 20 + 20 + 21 + 22 + 22 + 22 + 22 + 23 + y

Number of players = 11 + 1 = 12

Mean(x) = sum of ages / number of players

New mean (x) = 22

x = (230 + y) / 12

22 = (230 + y) / 12

Cross multiply

264 = 230 + y

y = 264 - 230

y = 34 years

How much liquid can the filter hold without it overflowing?
A.
B.
C.

Answers

Answer:

9.42 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find the volume of the cone.

The formula is given as:

1/3πr²h

From the question,

Diameter = 3 inches, Radius = D/2 = 3/2

r = 1.5 inches

h = 4 inches

Hence, the volume of the cone =

1/3 × π × 1.5² × 4

= 9.42 cubic inches

Therefore, the filter can hold 9.42 cubic inches of liquid without overflowing.

y = 8     ----> One coordinate can be (2, 8)

Another number you could use is 3.

Sarah earns $400 per week and spends 15% of her earnings on transportation. How much does Sarah spend on transportation every week? *

Answers

Answer:

60 dollars a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just take 15 percent of 400, then you get your answer

think of it like this: ?/400$ = 15/100. We are trying to find 15 % of 400, so that’s what the “?” represents.
thinking of it like fractions, cross multiply the numbers you have in this situation (400x15) =6,000
then you divide that answer by the number left (100)
(6,000 / 100) = 60

So the answer is 60$, 15% of 400$ is 60$
