Describe a walk along the number line that (a) is unbounded, and (b) visits zero an infinite number of times. Does a series corresponding to this walk converge?

Answers

Answer 1

One example of a walk along the number line that is unbounded and visits zero an infinite number of times is the following:

Start at position 1, and take a step of size -1. This puts you at position 0.

Take a step of size 1, putting you at position 1.

Take a step of size -1/2, putting you at position 1/2.

Take a step of size 1, putting you at position 3/2.

Take a step of size -1/3, putting you at position 1.

Take a step of size 1, putting you at position 2.

Take a step of size -1/4, putting you at position 7/4.

Take a step of size 1, putting you at position 11/4.

Take a step of size -1/5, putting you at position 2.

And so on, continuing with steps of alternating signs that decrease in magnitude as the walk progresses.

This walk is unbounded because the steps decrease in magnitude but do not converge to zero. The walk visits zero an infinite number of times because it takes a step of size -1 to get there, and then later takes a step of size 1 to move away from it.

The corresponding series for this walk is the harmonic series, which is known to diverge. Therefore, this walk does not converge.

he airplane Li’s family will be flying on can seat up to 149 passengers. If 96 passengers are currently on the plane, which inequality can be used to determine how many more people can board?
96 + x Less-than-or-equal-to 149
96 + x Greater-than-or-equal-to 149
96 + x > 149
96 + x < 149

Answers

Answer: Choice A)  96 + x ≤ 149

This is the same as saying "96 + x less than or equal to 149"

====================================================

Explanation:

We start with 96 people already on board. We add on x more people. The x is a placeholder for a positive whole number.

In total, we have 96+x people on the plane. This total must not exceed the max capacity of 149. In other words, the largest value of 96+x is 149.

Since 96+x can be 149 or smaller, we can say 96+x ≤ 149

The sum of two numbers is 47. twice the first number and three times the second number have a sum of 100. Set up a system of equations to find the numbers

Answers

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 47

2x + 3y = 100

Solving steps

x + y = 47 (-2)

2x + 3y = 100

We multiply the first equation by -2. This is so that x changes to -2x (So it would match the x below). We can then cross it over, since the equation below has 2x and -2x + 2x = 0.

-2x - 2y = -94

2x + 3y = 100

Y = 6

We get y = 6 by subtracting -2y (From the above equation) from 3y. This gives us Y. Afterwards, We subtract -94 (From the above equation) from 100 and that gives us 6. Therefore, y = 6.

To get x. We sub in the value for y into one of the equations and solve.

2x + 3(6) = 100

2x + 18 = 100

We bring over 18 from one side to the other, to get x alone. We have to change 18 to - 18 because it crosses over to the other side.

2x = 100 - 18

2x = 72

x = 72÷2

x = 36.

X = 36

Y = 6

How many x-intercepts would the function shown below have?
f(x) = 4(4x + 3)(x + 1)² (x^2– 3)
Answer:

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f(x) = 4(4x + 3)(x + 1)² (x^2– 3)

The x-intercept occurs at a point where f(x) = 0

f(x) = 4(4x + 3)(x + 1)² (x^2– 3)

4(4x + 3)(x + 1)² (x^2– 3) = 0

4x+3 = 0

4x = -3

x = -3/4

(x + 1)² = 0

x + 1 = 0

x = 0-1

x = -1

x^2-3 = 0

x^2 = 0+3

x^2 = 3

x  = ±√3

hence the x intercepts are -3/4, -1, √3 and -√3. This shows that there are 4 x intercepts

marianne is a five years younger than her friends if the sum of their age is 61 how old is her friend​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let marianne friend age be x and

marianne age be x - 5

if the sum of their age is 61 I.e

x + (x- 5) = 61

x + x - 5 = 61

2x =61 +5

2x = 66

divide both sides by 2

x = 33

so marianne friend age is 33 and

and marrianne age is 33-5 = 28.

cos(x) = 0.65

x = arccos(0.65)

x = 49.4583981264954 which is approximate

Twice the complement of an angle is 24 degrees less than its supplement. What is the measure of the angle?

Hope it helps!

The measure of the angle will be 24 degree.

What is Complementary angle?

When sum of two angles are 90 degrees then the two angles are called Complementary angles.

Given that;

The expression is,

''Twice the complement of an angle is 24 degrees less than its supplement.''

Now,

Let measure of an angle = x degree

The complement of an angle x = (90 - x) degree

The supplement of an angle x = (180 - x) degree

Then, By the given condition we can formulate;

2 ( 90 - x) = (180 - x) - 24

180 - 2x = 180 - x - 24

180 - 2x = 156 - x

Subtract 180 both sides;

180 - 2x - 180 = 156 - x - 180

- 2x = - x - 24

Take negative sign common,

2x = x + 24

Subtract x both side,

2x - x = 24

x = 24

Thus, The measure of the angle will be 24 degree.
