8 would become the whole number, since there are 3 repeating numbers you would put those over 999.

So you would get 8 and 132/999

Answer:

8 and 132 over 999.(option b)

Step-by-step explanation:

8.132132132......

We have to convert into rational number

Let x=8.132132132.... equation (1)

multiply (1) equation by 1000 both sides

1000x= 8132.132132... equation (2)

subtracting equation (1) from (2)

1000x- x= 8132.132132...- 8.132132....

999x= 8124

x= $\frac{8124}{999}$

x= 8 $\frac{132}{999}$

Hence, the correct answer is 8 and 132 over 999

Help !!! please show work so i know how to do it :)))

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the red lines mean the two sides are equal

so its an isosceles triangle meaning the two angles other than the 40° one are equal

the inner angles of a triangle must add up to 180

so 180-40 = 2x

140 = 2x

x = 140/2 = 70

velikii [3]

Y = 16, -16

explanation: the absolute value bars make the expression inside positive, if they were negative to begin with. so, a negative number like -16 becomes 16, and a positive number like 16 still stays the same

Given the sequence in the table below, determine the sigma notation of the sum for term 4 through term 15.

Naya [18.7K]

It's a geometric sequence.

$4,-12,36,... \\ \\
a_1=4 \\
r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{-12}{4}=-3 \\ \\
a_n=a_1 \times r^{n-1} \\
a_n=4 \times (-3)^{n-1} \\
a_n=4 \times (-3)^{-1} \times (-3)^n \\
a_n=4 \times (-\frac{1}{3}) \times (-3)^n \\
a_n=-\frac{4}{3}(-3)^n$

It's the sum for term 4 through term 15.

$\boxed{ \sum\limits_{n=4}^{15} (\frac{4}{3}(-3)^n)}$
