    Another sum of series quesiton

    sorry, you guys are right. for some reason there was a glitch, even if i selected converge, i got 50% of the problem correct(which means i got the first question right). but if i selected diverge, i got 100% of the problem(two problems = 100%) correct.

    Another sum of series quesiton

    it converges for sure, it was the first question asked.

    Another sum of series quesiton

    i made the changes, but i still don't see a common ratio

    Another sum of series quesiton

    Consider the series \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{n}{\sqrt{5n^2+5}} Value ______ a_1 = .316227766, a_2 = 2/5, a_3 = .4242640687, a_4 = .4338609156 there doesn't seem to be any common ratio, so that means that this isn't a geometric series right? well i think i can simplify the equation...

    What Is the Correct Sum of the Series \( \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{8^n}{9^n} \)?

    the answer is 2.2857, it was actually an easy question. thanks for the help

    What Is the Correct Sum of the Series \( \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{8^n}{9^n} \)?

    \frac{2}{9}\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1^n}{1^n} + \frac{6}{9}\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1^n}{1^n} right?

    What Is the Correct Sum of the Series \( \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{8^n}{9^n} \)?

    Determine the sum of the following series \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{2^n+6^n}{9^n} or can be written as... \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{8^n}{9^n} A_1 = 8/9, A_2 = 64/81, A_3 = 512/729 common ration (r)= 8/9 first term (a)= 8/9 so plugging everything i know into the geometric series...

    What is the convergence status of the given sequence and series?

    An = \frac{5n}{12n+5} For both of the following answer blanks, decide whether the given sequence or series is convergent or divergent. If convergent, enter the limit (for a sequence) or the sum (for a series). If divergent, enter INF if it diverges to infinity, MINF if it diverges to minus...

    Area of Polar Curve Region: Finding the Error

    Find the area of the region which is inside the polar curve r =5*cos(\theta) and outside the curve r = 3-1*cos(\theta) when i plugged those two functions into my calculator and found the bounds from 1.0471976 to 5.2359878. my integral: \int_{1.0471976}^{5.2359878}...

    Find Bounds for Area of Region: r^2 = 128cos(2\theta)

    Find the area of the region bounded by: r^2 = 128*cos(2\theta) \int 1/2*(\sqrt{128*cos(2\theta)})^2 that's my integral, but i don't know what the bounds are. i tried typing it into my calculator, but i could only find one bound(.78539816) and I am not even sure if this is even correct. can...

    Find the area of the region bounded

    ah, i get it now. thank you

    Find the area of the region bounded

    can you explain it to me agian? i don't really understand it that well. are you saying if it's an ellipse, the bounds will always be from 0 ->2pi?

    Find the area of the region bounded

    Find the area of the region bounded by: r= 6-2sin(\theta) here's what i did: 6-2sin(\theta) = 0 sin(\theta) = 1/3 so the bounds are from arcsin(-1/3) to arcsin(1/3) right? my integral: \int_{-.339}^{.339} 1/2*(6-2sin(\theta))^2 i get a answer of 0.6851040673*10^11, and it's...

    Find Length of Parametrized Curve: x(t), y(t)

    Find the length of parametrized curve given by x(t) = 0t^3 +12t^2 - 24t, y(t) = -4t^3 +12t^2+0t, where t goes from zero to one. Hint: The speed is a quadratic polynomial with integer coefficients. it's an arclength question right? x' = 24*t-24 y' = -12*t^2+24*t \int_{0}^{1}...
