    Series, Sequence and Probablility Question

    For the S3= -3 ((-2)3+ 5) = -3 (Am I not doing this correctly?) #2:For r, I have r=1/3

    Calculating the Present Value of an Annuity with Annual Compounding

    I am having trouble with the following problem: What will be the value of an annuity in today's dollars if $1000 is to be deposited for 18 years into an account paying 4.5% interest compounded annually? I used the following formula (I'm guessing I've figured something incorrectly) A=...

    Series, Sequence and Probablility Question

    I am working with problems which are taking a toll on me. 1st and 3rd partial sums of the sequence An=(-2)^n+5 ----I don't even know what formula to use to start this problem and sum of hte geometric series: 2/3 - 4/9 + 8/27 - ... I think I use this formula for this one: S=A1/1-r...

    How Do You Solve Systems of Equations Using an Inverse Matrix?

    Not exactly sure what I am saying. I am not having trouble with any other methods, i.e. Cramer Method, Gaussian, elementary row operations. This one has me truly stumped. Maybe I'm too tied (or old) to grasp it today.

    How Do You Solve Systems of Equations Using an Inverse Matrix?

    How would I go about solving a systme of equations using an inverse matrix? i.e. -10x - 6y = 6 7x + y = -7
  11. T

    Can you multiply this matrix with a singular value?

    Just so I have this straight: (0)(7) + (9)(5) + (-6)(-2) = 57 (-2)(7) + (-10)(5) + (7)(-2) = -78 written: 57 -78 am I correct?
