Problem involving different numbers of apple, banana and mango trees

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the total number of apple, banana, and mango trees based on given rows and trees per row. The user claims to have found a minimum of 3 trees but lacks the mark scheme for verification. Apple and banana trees each have 22 trees per row across 3 and 4 rows respectively, while mango trees have 22 trees per row across 5 rows. There is a suggestion for the user to independently verify their solution by plugging it back into the problem statement. The user insists their solution is correct.

I have done the working on the attached sheet, i got ##3## as the minimum. I do not have the mark scheme for this worksheet.
Apple trees will have ##22## trees per row ( 3 rows in total).
Bananas will have ##22## trees per row (4 rows in total).
Mango trees will have ##22## trees per row (5 rows in total).

Your thoughts highly appreciated.

So, you are unable to do that yourself? You need to learn to plug your answer back into the problem statement and verify that your solution works. You should not need anyone else to do that for you.
 
My solution is correct, cheers...
 

Thread 'Finding the number of ways to arrange identical balls in a circle'

I tried to combine those 2 formulas but it didn't work. I tried using another case where there are 2 red balls and 2 blue balls only so when combining the formula I got ##\frac{(4-1)!}{2!2!}=\frac{3}{2}## which does not make sense. Is there any formula to calculate cyclic permutation of identical objects or I have to do it by listing all the possibilities? Thanks

Thread 'Making the denominator of a certain fraction real'

Essentially I just have this problem that I'm stuck on, on a sheet about complex numbers: Show that, for ##|r|<1,## $$1+r\cos(x)+r^2\cos(2x)+r^3\cos(3x)...=\frac{1-r\cos(x)}{1-2r\cos(x)+r^2}$$ My first thought was to express it as a geometric series, where the real part of the sum of the series would be the series you see above: $$1+re^{ix}+r^2e^{2ix}+r^3e^{3ix}...$$ The sum of this series is just: $$\frac{(re^{ix})^n-1}{re^{ix} - 1}$$ I'm having some trouble trying to figure out what to...
