http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/520eac21e4b00ebc7dbeaf09 can anyone help me the problem is in the link.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh god...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Micro can you help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg thx lol see that wasnt so hard XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, to solve this type of question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you see the sigma notation sign, the middle part is basically the function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i=1 is the number you will start with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7 is the one you stop right at

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, i see it, and i think i know how to do it but im not sure about the i=1 thing under the sigma. usually its an n so i dont know if the i affects anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok the i=1 is the number you start with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have problems with complex numbers and such so yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There is no difference between an 'n' and a 'i'???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the number on top is the number you stop at so in your case it is 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok now your function is 2(3)^(i-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i substitute the numbers 1-7 into the function and thats my answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, how do i know if its convergent or divergent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok to find that out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Give me one second

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok np

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait...brainfart.....in the equation do i multiply the 2 times the 3 first or do i do the exponent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You do the exponent first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For example 2-1 for the exponent gives me 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2*3= 6^1=6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is convergent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because it has a limit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which is 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Any questions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No this is perfect sorry i was writing and taking notes thank you so much A MEDAL FOR JU.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem *fan* ur a genius sent from the heavens.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you, have a good day
