Find the sum S below:
[tex] \displaystyle \large{S = \frac{2}{1 \cdot 3} + \frac{2}{3 \cdot 5} + \frac{2}{5 \cdot 7} + ... + \frac{2}{(2n - 1)(2n + 1)} }[/tex]
Please show your work too. Thanks!​

Answers

Answer 1

You can use the same technique I showed in another one of your questions (24467305).

Partial fractions:

[tex]\dfrac2{(2n-1)(2n+1)} = \dfrac a{2n-1} + \dfrac b{2n+1} \\\\ \implies 2 = a(2n+1) + b(2n-1) = (2a+2b)n + a- b \\\\ \implies \begin{cases}2a+2b=0 \\ a-b = 2\end{cases} \implies a = 1, b=-1[/tex]

Then we have a telescoping sum,

[tex]S = \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n \frac 2{(2k-1)(2k+1)} \\\\ S = \sum_{k=1}^n \left(\frac1{2k-1} - \frac1{2k+1}\right) \\\\ S = 1-\frac13 + \frac13 - \frac15 + \cdots +\frac1{2n-3}-\frac1{2n-1}+\frac1{2n-1}-\frac1{2n+1} \\\\ S = 1 - \frac1{2n+1} = \boxed{\frac{2n}{2n+1}}[/tex]

(And in case you were actually interested in an infinite sum, we can see that this converges to 1 as n goes to ∞.)

2) Jessica went to the mall. She paid $14.57 on shorts and $10.20 on pants
with two $20 bills. She went to 2 shops. How much money did Jessica get in change?

Answers

Answer:

15.23

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you add 14.57 with 10.20 which equals 24.77.

then you minus 24.77 from 40 which equals 15.23!

hope this helps you :D

Hello :D

To do this you need to do:

$20 x 2 = $40.00

$14.57 + $10.20 = $24.77

$40.00 - $24.77 = $15.23

The answer is $15.23. I hope this helps :)

C
It is a binomial with a degree of 3.
D
It is a trinomial with a degree of 3.

Answers

Answer:

b its a trinominal with a degree of 2

The polynomial, 3x - 4 + 5x², is a trinomial with a degree of 2.

What is a polynomial?

An expression that consists of variables, constants, and exponents that is combined using mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division is referred to as a polynomial.

Given:

We have the polynomial,

3x - 4 + 5x²

To find the degree of a polynomial:

We take the highest powered variable, and the order of that variable is equal to the degree of the polynomial.

Here, the highest power is 2.

So, the degree is 2.

And the polynomial has three terms.

So, the polynomial is trinomial.

Therefore, it is a trinomial with a degree of 2.

Explain what the vertical line test is and how it is used.​

Answers

Answer:

The vertical line test is a way to figure out if a figure on a graph is a function. Imagine a vertical line goes across the graph from left to right. If the line touches two points at the same time, it's not a function.

Answer:

Sample Response: The vertical line test is a way to determine if a relation is a function. This test determines if one input has exactly one output on the graph. If any vertical line passes through more than one point on the graph, then the relation is not a function because two different outputs have the same input.

There is no whole number if you want to divide each number.

121 only goes into 1, 11, and 121. No other numbers have 11

45/2 = 22.5

45/3 = 15

45/5 = 9

2470/2 = 1235

2470/3 = 823.33333...

2470/5 = 494

121/2 = 60.5

121/3 = 40.33333...

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, a) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, b)

m = [tex]\frac{b-a}{1-0}[/tex] = b - a

y = (b - a)x + c

(a)

with coefficient of x being b - a

(b)

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, a ) ⇒ c = a
