It is false that if a power series converges for one value of x, it will converge for other values of x
What is the ratio test can be used to determine whether 1 / n^3 converges?The ratio test can be used to determine whether 1 / n^3 converges.
True. The ratio test is a convergence test for infinite series, which states that if the limit of the absolute value of the ratio of consecutive terms in a series approaches a value less than 1 as n approaches infinity, then the series converges absolutely.
For the series 1/n^3, we can apply the ratio test as follows:
|a_{n+1}/a_n| = (n/n+1)^3
Taking the limit as n approaches infinity, we have:
lim (n/n+1)^3 = lim (1+1/n)^(-3) = 1
Since the limit is equal to 1, the ratio test is inconclusive and cannot determine whether the series converges or diverges. However, we can use other tests to show that the series converges.
True or False?
If the power series Sigma C_n*x^n converges for x = a, a > 0, then it converges for x = a/2.
False. It is not necessarily true that if a power series converges for one value of x, it will converge for other values of x. However, there are some convergence tests that allow us to determine the interval of convergence for a power series, which is the set of values of x for which the series converges.
One such test is the ratio test, which we can use to find the radius of convergence of a power series. The ratio test states that if the limit of the absolute value of the ratio of consecutive terms in a power series approaches a value L as n approaches infinity, then the radius of convergence is given by:
R = 1/L
For example, if the power series Sigma C_n*x^n converges absolutely for x = a, a > 0, then we can apply the ratio test to find the radius of convergence as follows:
|C_{n+1}x^{n+1}/C_nx^n| = |C_{n+1}/C_n|*|x|
Taking the limit as n approaches infinity, we have:
lim |C_{n+1}/C_n||x| = L|x|
If L > 0, then the power series converges absolutely for |x| < R = 1/L, and if L = 0, then the power series converges for x = 0 only. If L = infinity, then the power series diverges for all non-zero values of x.
Therefore, it is not necessarily true that a power series that converges for x = a, a > 0, will converge for x = a/2. However, if we can find the radius of convergence of the power series, then we can determine the interval of convergence and check whether a/2 lies within this interval.

Question 4 of 18
in a group of 60 students, the probability that at most 40 of them like to swim
is 67%. what is the probability that at least 41 of them like to swim?
a. 28%
b. 33%
c. 74%
d. 44%
submit
Answer b. The probability that at least 41 of them like to swim is 33%.
Solution:
The probability of an event is always 1 or 100%
The probability of at most 40 of them like to swim is 67% = 0.67
The probability of at most 40 not swimming = 1 - 0.67 = 0.33
Hence the probability of at least 41 people swimming is 33%.
What is Probability?The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true.An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.The likelihood that an event will occur increases with its probability. A straightforward illustration is tossing a fair (impartial) coin. Since there are no other conceivable outcomes and the coin is fair, the odds of both the possibilities, "heads" and "tails," are equally likely to occur. As a result, the probability of either occurrence is half.Learn more about Probability brainly.com/question/24756209

An irrigation system (sprinkler) has a parabolic pattern. The height, in feet, of the spray of water is given by the equation ℎ()=−2+10+9.5 h ( x ) = − x 2 + 10 x + 9.5 , where x is the number of feet away from the sprinkler head (along the ground) the spray is.
Since the height (feet) of the spray of water is given by this equation h(x) = -x² + 10x + 9.5, we can logically deduce that the irrigation system is positioned 9.5 feet above the ground to start.
How to determine the maximum height?For any quadratic equation with a parabolic curve, the axis of symmetry is given by:
Xmax = -b/2a
Xmax = -10/2(-1)
Xmax = 5.
Thus, the maximum height on the vertical axis is given by:
h(x) = -x² + 10x + 9.5
h(5) = -(5)² + 10(5) + 9.5
h(5) = -25 + 50 + 9.5
h(5) = 34.5 feet.
Therefore, the spray reaches a maximum height of 84.5 feet at a horizontal distance of 5 feet away from the sprinkler head.
Also, the spray reaches all the way to the ground at about:
Maximum distance = √34.5 + 5
Maximum distance = 10.87 feet.

Identify the solutions to the quadratic equation 6x^2+x-1=0
Answer:
1/3 and -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the factoring method to identify the solutions of x
6x^2+x-1
2 numbers have to multiply to 6 and subtract to 1 because x is the same as 1x
So, you get 3x and 2x
since you know that -1x1 is -1 you will get
(3x-1)(2x+1)=0
Now, since (3x-1) and (2x+1) multiply to get 0, if either (3x-1) or (2x+1) is 0 the statement will be valid
3(1/3)-1=0
2(-1/2)+1=0
So, your answers are 1/3 and -1/2

Solve the system of equations 4x+5y=-14 and -5x-8y=10 by combining the equations.
The solution of the system is:
x = 62/7
y = 30/7
How to solve the system of equations?
Here we have the system:
4x + 5y = -14
-5x - 8y = 10
To solve it by combining the equations, we need to try to remove one of the variables.
If we take the sum of 5 times the first equation and 4 times the second equation we get:
5*(4x + 5y) + 4*(-5x - 8y) = 5*(-14) + 4*10
If we simplify that we get:
20x + 25y - 20x - 32y = -30
-7y = -30
Now we can solve that for y:
y = -30/-7 = 30/7
Now to get the value of x, we can replace the value of y in any of the given equations:
Using the first one:
4x + 5y = -14
x = (-14 - 5y)/4
x = (-14 - 5*30/7)/4 = (-98/7 - 150/7)/4 = 248/28 = 124/14 = 62/7

Writing equivalent ratios and ordered pairs Gallons 1 2 3 Quarts 4 8 12 which ordered pairs represents the equivalent ratios in the table? (1,2) (1,4) (2,8) (4,1) (3,12)
Step-by-step explanation:
gallons to quarts have the ratio 1:4.
there are 4 quarts in a gallon (hence the name of quarts by the way).
so, the question is really, which order pair have also a 1:4 ratio between x and y ?
(1, 4)
(2, 8)
(3, 12)
the (4, 1) would represent a 4:1 ratio.
and as you know, 4/1 is different to 1/4.
a ratio is nothing else than a fraction. just the "whole" is different.
the pure fraction 1/4 means that the whole is 4/4, has 4 times 1/4.
a ratio 1:4 (you can also write as 1/4) means that the whole has 5 (1+4) parts.
other than that they are compared and calculated with the same way as normal fractions.

then snow fell at constant rate of 3 inches every 2 hours until the snow level reaches at 12 inch had fallen
It means after that there was 13 inch snow on the ground.
and in 1 hour only 1.5 inches snow increases
and if snow takes 2 hours to increase at 3 inches then
it takes 10 hours to reach at 12 inches.
So, snow falls for 10 hours to increase at 12 inches.
And then the snow falls at constant rate of 1 inch per hour for 2 hours.
It means now snow reaches at a 15 inches after 16 hours.
Then sun melt the snow at a 4 inches per 3 hours and sun came for 6 hours then

Theo earns a base salary plus commission. At the end of September, he was paid $3,835.25 based on his monthly sales of $12,850. At the end of October, he earned $3,641 based on $9,875 in sales. What was Theo’s base salary?
Theo's base salary using a simultaneous equation approach is $2,996.22 .
In order to determine the base salary of Theo, we can express the two earnings and sales amounts using simultaneous equation, that we would solve to arrive at the base salary
Bear in mind that total earnings are determined as base salary plus commission
Let X be the base salary
Let R be the rate of commission
commission =sales*rate of commission
When earnings were $3,835.25 and sales is $12,850, we have the below equation:
X+(12,850*R)=3,835.25
X+12850R=3,835.25 .................... equation (1)
When earnings were $3,641 and sales is $9,875, we have the below equation:
X+(9,875*R)=3641
X+9875R=3641 ......................... equation (2)
subtract equation 2 from 1
2975R=194.25
R=194.25/2975
R=commission rate=6.52941176470588%
substitute for R in equation 1 to arrive at X(base salary)
X+(12850*6.52941176470588%)=3,835.25
