Answer:
The sum converges at: [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{8}{n^2 - 1}[/tex]
Express the denominator as difference of two squares
[tex]\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{8}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Express 8 as 4 * 2
[tex]\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{4 * 2}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{2}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Express 2 as 1 + 1 + 0
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{1+1+0}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Express 0 as n - n
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{1+1+n - n}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{(n + 1)-(n - 1)}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Split
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{(n + 1)}{(n - 1)(n+1)}-\frac{(n - 1)}{(n - 1)(n+1)}[/tex]
Cancel out like terms
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{1}{(n - 1)}-\frac{1}{(n+1)}[/tex]
In the above statement, we have:
[tex]a_3 + a_5 = 4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{4}) + (\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{6})][/tex]
[tex]a_3 + a_5 = 4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6})][/tex]
Add [tex]a_7[/tex]
[tex]a_3 + a_5 + a_7= 4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6}) + (\frac{1}{7 - 1} - \frac{1}{7+1})][/tex]
[tex]a_3 + a_5 + a_7= 4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{6}) + (\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{8})][/tex]
[tex]a_3 + a_5 + a_7= 4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{8})][/tex]
Notice that the pattern follows:
[tex]a_3 + a_5 + a_7 + ...... + a_{k}= 4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{k+1})][/tex]
The above represent the odd sums (say S1)
For the even sums, we have:
[tex]4 * \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n =2} \frac{1}{(n - 1)}-\frac{1}{(n+1)}[/tex]
In the above statement, we have:
[tex]a_4 + a_6 = 4[(\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{5}) + (\frac{1}{5} - \frac{1}{7})][/tex]
[tex]a_4 + a_6 = 4[(\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{7})][/tex]
Add [tex]a_8[/tex] to both sides
[tex]a_4 + a_6 +a_8 = 4[(\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{7}) + \frac{1}{7} - \frac{1}{9}][/tex]
[tex]a_4 + a_6 +a_8 = 4[\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{9}][/tex]
Notice that the pattern follows:
[tex]a_4 + a_6 + a_8 + ...... + a_{k}= 4[(\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{k+1})][/tex]
The above represent the even sums (say S2)
The total sum (S) is:
[tex]S = S_1 + S_2[/tex]
[tex]S =4[(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{k+1})] + 4[(\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{k+1})][/tex]
Remove all k terms
[tex]S =4[(\frac{1}{2}] + 4[(\frac{1}{3}][/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]S =\frac{4}{2} + \frac{4}{3}[/tex]
[tex]S =\frac{12 + 8}{6}[/tex]
[tex]S =\frac{20}{6}[/tex]
[tex]S =\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
The sum converges at: [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]

lim x->1+( sin(1-x)-(e^(x-1))+1)/ lnx
We're given the one-sided limit,
[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^+}\frac{\sin(1-x)-e^{x-1}+1}{\ln(x)}[/tex]
Evaluating the limand directly at x = 1 gives the indeterminate from
(sin(1 - 1) - exp(1 - 1) + 1) / ln(1) = 0/0
so we can potentially solve the limit by applying L'Hopital's rule. Doing so gives
[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^+}\frac{\sin(1-x)-e^{x-1}+1}{\ln(x)}=\lim_{x\to1^+}\frac{-\cos(1-x)-e^{x-1}}{\frac1x}=\frac{-\cos(0)-e^0}{\frac11}=\boxed{-2}[/tex]

4/8 =?/2 please answer
Answer:
? = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
4/8 = ?/2
Change the ? into a variable so it's easier to calculate:
Variable x = ?
4/8 = x/2
Cross multiply:
4 × 2 = 8 × x
8 = 8x
Divide both sides by 8 to isolate the variable:
1 = x
Check your work:
4/8 = 1/2
4 × 2 = 8 × 1
8 = 8

Keith is looking at a cliff. He determines that the angle of elevation to the top is 70° from where he is at. 70m away from Keith, Alan estimates the angle between the base of the cliff, himself, and Keith to be 29° while Keith estimates the angle between the base of the cliff, himself, and Alan to be 48°. What is the height, h, of the cliff to the nearest tenth of a metre?
1) 78.8m
2) 83.9m
3) 89.0m
4) 95.7m
This question completely baffled me on my homework, I still haven't done it because I don't even know how to approach it (Since it's a 3D problem)
Please help me out
Also, this homework is due in an hour so I'm starting to sweat
9514 1404 393
Answer:
4) 95.7 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle at the cliff base between Alan and Keith is ...
B = 180° -29° -48° = 103°
The law of sines will tell you the distance KB from Keith to the cliff base is
KB/sin(A) = KA/sin(B)
KB = KA×sin(A)/sin(B) = (70 m)sin(29°)/sin(103°) ≈ 34.82935 m
The height of the cliff is found from the tangent relation ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(70°) = height/(34.83 m)
height = (34.83 m)tan(70°) = 95.693 m
The height of the cliff is about 95.7 m.
_____
Additional comment
These problems can usually be resolved into two 2-D problems. Here, we can work out the distance we need from Keith to the cliff by considering only the ground plan of the site. Then we can work out the height of the cliff only considering the vertical plane containing Keith and the base of the cliff.
The attachment shows the ground plan triangle KAB.

Which is the graph of an even monomial function?
Answer:
The graph of an even function is symmetric about the y-axis. The graph of an odd function is symmetric about the x-axis. It is possible that the use of these two words originated with the observation that the graph of a polynomial function in which all variables are to an even power is symmetric about the y -axis.

Answer:
the correct answer is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
The circle with center (h, k) and radius r has equation ...
(x -h)² +(y-k)² = r²
For the given center, that is ...
(x -1)² +(y +1)² = r²
The value of r² can be found by using the given point for x and y, and seeing what value of r² makes the equation true.
(5 -1)² +(7 +1)² = 4² +8² = 16 +64 = 80
So, r² = 80 makes the equation true, and that equation is ...
(x -1)² +(y +1)² = 80

using data from 2010 and projected to 2020, the population of the United Kingdom (y, in millions) can be approximated by the equation 10.0y-4.55x=581. where x is the number of years after 2000 what is projected population in 2026?
Answer:
The projected population in 2026 is of 699.3 million.
Step-by-step explanation:
Population:
The population, in x years after 2000, is given by the follwing equation:
[tex]y - 4.55x = 581[/tex]
That is:
[tex]y(x) = 4.55x + 581[/tex]
What is projected population in 2026?
2026 - 2000 = 26, so this is y(26).
[tex]y(26) = 4.55(26) + 581 = 699.3[/tex]
The projected population in 2026 is of 699.3 million.
Two functions are shown in the table below f(x) equals -X squared plus 4X +12 And G(x)
equals X +2
Answer:
[tex]x = -2; x = 5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]f(x) = -x^2 + 4x + 12[/tex]
[tex]g(x) = x +2[/tex]
Required
For what value of x is: [tex]f(x) = g(x)[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = g(x)[/tex] implies that
[tex]-x^2 + 4x + 12 = x + 2[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]-x^2 + 4x -x + 12 -2 = 0[/tex]
[tex]-x^2 + 3x + 10 = 0[/tex]
Expand
[tex]-x^2 + 5x-2x + 10 = 0[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]-x(x - 5)-2(x - 5) = 0[/tex]
Factor out x - 5
[tex](-x - 2)(x - 5) = 0[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]-x - 2 = 0; x - 5 = 0[/tex]
So:
[tex]x = -2; x = 5[/tex]

A moving company charges $30 plus $0.15 per mile to rent a moving van. Another company charges $15 plus $0.20 per mile to rent the same van. For how many miles will the cost be the same for the two companies? Write and solve an equation.
According to a government study, among adults in the 25- to 34-year age group, the mean amount spent per year on reading and entertainment is $2,020. Assume that the distribution of the amounts spent follows the normal distribution with a standard deviation of $456. Use Appendix B.3. (Round your z-score computation to 2 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) What percent of the adults spend more than $2,600 per year on reading and entertainment
Answer:
z = x-u/s
z = 2600 - 2020/456
z = 1.27
= .897
1-.898 = .102
z > 1.27 = 10.2%
The percentage of adults spending more than $2,600 per year on reading and entertainment is 10.2%.
What is the z-score?The standard score in statistics is the number of standard deviations that a raw score deviates from or exceeds the mean of the phenomenon being observed or assessed. Standard scores are positive for raw scores above the mean and negative for raw scores below the mean.
Given that according to a government study, among adults in the 25- to 34-year age group, the mean amount spent per year on reading and entertainment is $2,020. Assume that the distribution of the amounts spent follows the normal distribution with a standard deviation of $456.
The percentage will be calculated as,
z = x-u/s
z = 2600 - (2020/456)
z = 1.27
The value of z=1.27 in the table is 0.897. The percentage will be calculated as,
P = 1-.898 = .102
z > 1.27 = 10.2%
Therefore, the percentage of adults spending more than $2,600 per year on reading and entertainment is 10.2%.

Three rectangular prisms each have a height of 1 cm.
. Prism A has a base that is 1 cm by 11 cm
* Prism B has a base that is 2 cm by 7 cm SA +V
Prism C has a base that is 3 cm by 5 cm.
1. Find the surface area and volume of each prism. Use the dot paper to draw the prisms, if needed.
Answer:
A: SA = 46 cm^2; V = 11 cm^3
B: SA = 46 cm^2; V = 14 cm^3
C: SA = 46 cm^2; V = 15 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
SA = 2B + PH = 2LW + PH
where SA = total surface area,
B = area of a base
P = perimeter of the base
H = height of the prism
L = length of the base
W = width of the base
V = LWH
Prism A:
SA = 2(11 cm)(1 cm) + 2(11 cm + 1 cm)(1 cm)
SA = 46 cm^2
V = (11 cm)(1 cm)(1 cm) = 11 cm^3
Prism B:
SA = 2(7 cm)(2 cm) + 2(7 cm + 2 cm)(1 cm)
SA = 46 cm^2
V = (7 cm)(2 cm)(1 cm) = 14 cm^3
Prism C:
SA = 2(5 cm)(3 cm) + 2(5 cm + 3 cm)(1 cm)
SA = 46 cm^2
V = (5 cm)(3 cm)(1 cm) = 15 cm^3
Triangle D E F is shown. Angle E F D is a right angle. The length of E F is 24 and the length of D F is 7.
Which trigonometric ratios are correct for triangle DEF? Select three options.
sin(D) = StartFraction 24 Over 25 EndFraction
cos(E) = StartFraction 7 Over 25 EndFraction
tan(D) = StartFraction 24 Over 7 EndFraction
sin(E) = StartFraction 7 Over 25 EndFraction
tan(D) = StartFraction 7 Over 24 EndFraction
Answer:
Sin(E) = 7/25
Sin(D) = 24/25
Tan(D)= 24/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Sin=opp/hyp
Tan=opp/adj
Cos=adj/hyp
The trigonometric ratios that are correct for triangle DEF are sin(E) = 7/25, sin(D) = 24/25 and tan(D)= 24/7
How to determine the trigonometric ratios?The given parameters are:
EF = 24
DF = 7
Start by calculating the length DE using:
DE²= EF² + DF²
So, we have:
DE²= 24² + 7²
Take the square root of both sides
DE= 25
The sine of the angles is calculated using:
sin(Ф) = opp/hyp
So, we have:
sin(E) = 7/25
sin(D) = 24/25
The tangent of the angles is calculated using:
tan(Ф) = opp/adj
So, we have:
tan(D)= 24/7
Hence, the trigonometric ratios that are correct for triangle DEF are sin(E) = 7/25, sin(D) = 24/25 and tan(D)= 24/7
