in a geometric series t1=23,t3=92 and the sum of all of the terms of the series is 62813. How many terms are in the series

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: t_1=23,\ \ \ t_3=92\n\nthe\ geometric\ series\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ t_3=t_1\cdot q^2;\ \ \ q- the\ quotient \n\n92=23\cdot q^2\ /:23 \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ q^2= 4\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ (q=2\ \ \ or\ \ \ q=-2)\n\nSum\nS_n=t_1\cdot \frac{\big{1-q^n}}{\big{1-q}} \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 62813=23\cdot \frac{\big{1-q^n}}{\big{1-q}} \ /:23 \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \2731= \frac{\big{1-q^n}}{\big{1-q}} \n\n

1)\ \ \ q=2\n\Rightarrow\ \ \ 2731= \frac{\big{1-2^n}}{\big{1-2}} \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2731=2^n-1\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2^n=2732\n\n\Rightarrow\ \ \ n=log_22732\ \notin\ Natural\n\n

2)\ \ q=-2\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2731= \frac{\big{1-(-2)^n}}{\big{1-(-2)}} \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ 2731=\frac{\big{1-(-2)^n}}{\big{3}}\ /\cdot3 \n\n\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 8193=1-(-2)^n\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ (-2)^n=-8192\ \ \ (\Leftrightarrow\ \ \ n-odd\ number)\n\n\ \Rightarrow \ \ \ (-2)^n=(-2)^(13)\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ n=13\n\nAns.\ In\ the\ geometric\ series\ are\ 13\ terms.

A bottlenose dolphin can swim 2.68 meters per second. Find the dolphin speed in miles per hour

Answers

Answer:

The dolphin speed in miles per hour is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 mi=1,609.34 m ------> 1 m=1/ 1,609.34 mi

1 h= 3,600 sec ----> 1 sec=1/3,600 h

we have

2.68(m)/(sec)

Convert to mi/h

2.68(m)/(sec)=2.68((1/1,609.34))/((1/3,600))=6(mi)/(h)

Answer:

6

question 4
So the polygon has 10 sides, to calculate how much all the interior angles are summed up, you have to see how many triangles you can fit into the polygon (this works for any polygon), in this case it is 8 (see file attached). Therefore you do 8 x 180 = 1440, so the overall angle is 1440º. Now you do 1440 : 10, because there are 10 equal angles, and that is 144º. 
Every angle has 144º

which equation is represented by the function table below?          x's are 1,2,3,4              y's are 8,14,20,26     

Answers

f: R -> R, f(x) = ax + b;
f(1) = 8 => a + b = 8;
f(2) = 14 => 2a + b = 14 => a = 6 and b =2;
f(3) = 20 => 6*3 + 2 = 20 True;
f(4) = 26 => 4*6 + 2 = 26 True;

then, f:R -> R, f(x) = 6x + 2;
\int\limits{(x)} = 6x + 2

a company paid $48 for two cases of printer paper. each case contained 12 packages of paper. next month the company's office manager needs to order 180 packages of the same paper .if the price per package does not change what would be the total cost of next month's order?

Answers

Well, if two cases of 12 packages of printer paper cost $48, then 24 packages cost $48. This means that each package cost $0.5. Multiplying this by 180, we get a total of $90 for 180 packages of paper. A is the answer.
