((picture) convergent and divergent series

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A series is said to be convergent if |r| < 1. Where r is the common ratio of the series.

If |r| ≥ 1 then the geometric series diverges.

12/5 + 48/25 + 192/125 +

r = 192/125 ÷ 48/25 = 4/5

r = 48/25 ÷ 12/5 = 4/5

In the series, r is less than 1. So the series is convergent.

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
