Find the fist 4 terms of a geometric series with first term of 8 and the sum to infinity of 12

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of an infinite geriatric series with |r| < 1 is

s = a1/ (1 - r)

in our case we have

a1 = 8

12 = 8/(1 - r)

12(1 - r) = 8

1 - r = 8/12 = 2/3

-r = -1/3

r = 1/3

so, the first 4 terms (I added a5 too, just in case your teacher meant the NEXT 4 terms) are

a1 = 8

a2 = a1 × 1/3 = 8/3

a3 = a2 × 1/3 = 8/9

a4 = a3 × 1/3 = 8/27

a5 = a4 × 1/3 = 8/81

...

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]8,\quad \dfrac{8}{3},\quad \dfrac{8}{9},\quad\dfrac{8}{27}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum to infinity of a geometric series:

[tex]S_\infty=\dfrac{a}{1-r} \quad \textsf{for }|r| < 1[/tex]

Given:

[tex]a[/tex] = 8[tex]S_\infty[/tex] = 12

Substitute given values into the formula and solve for [tex]r[/tex]:

[tex]\implies 12=\dfrac{8}{1-r}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 1-r=\dfrac{8}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\implies r=1-\dfrac{8}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\implies r=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

General form of a geometric sequence: [tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

(where a is the first term and r is the common ratio)

Substitute the found values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]r[/tex]:

[tex]\implies a_n=8\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)r^{n-1}[/tex]

The first 4 terms:

[tex]\implies a_1=8\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)r^0=8[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_2=8\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)r^1=\dfrac{8}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_3=8\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)r^2=\dfrac{8}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_4=8\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)r^3=\dfrac{8}{27}[/tex]

How to calculate the area of trapezium B using the scale factor

Answers

Answer:

  612.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of areas of similar figures is the square of the scale factor. The scale factor is the ratio of corresponding side lengths. Here, we must find the scale factor.

__

missing side of A

The only given side of trapezium B corresponds to an unknown side of trapezium A. We can find the length of that unknown side using the area formula.

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h . . . . . parallel sides b1, b2; height h

  98 cm² = 1/2(16 cm +b2)(7 cm) . . . . use known values

  28 cm = 16 cm +b2 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3.5 cm

  b2 = 12 cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 16 cm

The top side of trapezium A is 12 cm long.

scale factor

Now we have the lengths of corresponding (top) sides, so we can find the scale factor. It is their ratio. We choose to express it as (size of B)/(size of A).,

  k = (30 cm)/(12 cm) = 2.5

area of B

The area of trapezium B will be that of trapezium A multiplied by the square of the scale factor:

  area B = (k²)(area A) = (2.5²)(area A)

  area B = 6.25×98 cm² = 612.5 cm²

The area of trapezium B is 612.5 cm².

An airplane flight has 374 seats. The probability that a person who buys a ticket actually goes on that flight is about 85%. If the airline wants to fill all the seats on the flight, how many tickets should it sell?

Answers

Taking into account the definition of ratio and proportion, the airline should sell 440 tickets.

What is ratio and proportion

The ratio is the comparison of two quantities and is measured from the division of two values.

The relationship of equality that exists between two ratios, that is, between two comparisons between two determined quantities, is known as a proportion. So if [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] corresponds to the ratio, then [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{c}{d}[/tex] equals a proportion.

Amount of tickets sold

An airplane flight has 374 seats. The probability that a person who buys a ticket actually goes on that flight is about 85%. The airline wants to fill all the seats (100%) on the flight.

This can be represented by the proportion:

[tex]\frac{374}{85}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{amount of tickets}{100}[/tex]

Solving:

amount of tickets= 100×[tex]\frac{374}{85}[/tex]

amount of tickets= 440

Finally, the airline should sell 440 tickets.

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of y = ln x. Which statement correctly describes the graph of y = ln(x - 7) + 3?

Answers

The statement correctly describes the graph of y = ln(x - 7) + 3 is translated 3 units up as well as 7 units to the right.

what is the graph of logarithmic function?

The graph of a logarithmic function has a vertical asymptote at x = 0. The graph of a logarithmic function will decrease from left to right

if 0 < b < 1. And if the base of the function is greater than 1, b > 1, then the graph will increase from left to right.

Given graph : y = ln(x), has a vertical and horizontal translation.

As we know, y = ln(x - h) + k | where h is the vertical shift, and k is the horizontal shift.

If ln(x - k), then the graph is translated right k units.If ln(x + k), then the graph is translated left k units.If ln(x) + h, then the graph is translated up h units.If ln(x) - h, then the graph is translated down h units.

Therefore, comparing y = ln(x - 7) + 3 it with different function we can write the graph of y = ln(x - 7) + 3 is translated 3 units up as well as 7 units to the right.

Question 2.1.1

Answer:  5 units

Reason:

Use the distance formula to find the distance from the origin (0,0) to the terminal point (-3, 4)

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,0) \text{ and } (x_2, y_2) = (-3,4)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-(-3))^2 + (0-4)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0+3)^2 + (0-4)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (-4)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{9 + 16}\\\\d = \sqrt{25}\\\\d = 5\\\\[/tex]

The pythagorean theorem is a similarly related alternative path you can take.

This triangle is a 3-4-5 right triangle.

====================================================

Question 2.1.2

Answer:  1/5

Reason:

r = distance from origin to terminal point

r = 5, calculated back in the previous problem above.

sin(alpha) = y/r = 4/5

cos(alpha) = x/r = -3/5

sin(alpha)+cos(alpha) = (4/5)+(-3/5) = 1/5

====================================================

Question 2.1.3

Answer:  1

Reason:

Recall that tangent is the ratio of sine over cosine

tan = sin/cos

Therefore,

[tex]\tan(\alpha) *\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)}*\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)*\cos(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)*\sin(\alpha)}\\\\1[/tex]

This assumes that neither sin(alpha) nor cos(alpha) are zero. Otherwise, we have a division by zero error.

rotation 180° about the origin

Answers

Answer:

The rule for a rotation by 180° about the origin is (x,y)→(−x,−y).

Step-by-step explanation:

The rotation of angle 180 degree about origin is described below.

Rotation 180° about the origin is a geometric transformation that involves rotating a figure or shape around the point (0,0),

Also known as the origin, by an angle of 180 degrees.

This means that every point on the shape is moved to an equal distance away from the origin but on the opposite side of the origin.

This transformation is a reflection where the shape is flipped along,

the x-axis or y-axis or both, depending on the shape's orientation.

The rotation 180° about the origin is a common transformation in various geometrical applications, such as computer graphics, engineering, and physics.

It is a simple transformation that can be easily represented and performed using matrices or complex numbers.

Therefore,

rotation 180° about the origin is a geometric transformation that is important in various applications and involves rotating a shape around the origin by an angle of 180 degrees, resulting in a reflection of the shape across the x or y-axis.
