Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, give the limit. 60, -10, 5/3, -5/18 a. Diverges b. Converges; 11100 c. Converges; 72 d. Converges; 0
i might be able to help :)
Hi thanks :)
no prob
So. What do I need to do?
can you recognize what type of a series this is ?
Ummmmm....what are my options?
lol its geometric because 10/60= 0.167 =r and 5/3 / 10 = 0.167 =r
the consecutive terms maintain a fixed ratio
so we can use the geometric series test. do you remember what that is ?
@girlfromafrica
are you here
???
Sorry, the answer is 0. Right? @tvartheman12
It converges.
yes, its convergent because the ratio is less than 1. the sum of this series is 72
(what grade you in btw)
Thank you! I'm a freshman.
kk me two and also remember limit=sum in a geometric series.
is this one of the other questions you have to answer A certain radioactive isotope has a half-life of 11 days. If one is to make a table showing the half-life decay of a sample of this isotope from 32 grams to 1 gram; list the time (in days, starting with t = 0) in the first column and the mass remaining (in grams) in the second column, which type of sequence is used in the first column and which type of sequence is used in the second column?
I don't know, but I need to go. My quiz needs to be submitted soon. Thank you so much for your help man!
no prob, are you in connections
Oh wait. No. My other question is: A certain radioactive isotope has a half-life of 15 days. If one is to make a table showing the half-life decay of a sample of this isotope from 32 grams to 1 gram; list the time (in days, starting with t = 0) in the first column and the mass remaining (in grams) in the second column, which type of sequence is used in the first column and which type of sequence is used in the second column?
lol kk ill help lol
Thanks! I'll be on again in a little while :)
