Discuss: a. The role of the expansion of 1/(1 - t) in powers of t in the explanation of the Basic Convergence Principle. b. The role of the Basic Convergence Principle in the explanation of the ratio test.

See convergence analysis below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the expansion of 1/(1-t) in powers of t, we can recall that an infinite  Geometric series with first term "1" and common ratio "t", in the case that the absolute value of "t" is smaller than 1, can be represented by:

The condition for such, is that the absolute value of "t" is smaller than "1", which gives us the radius of convergence for this series "1" and the interval of convergence:  - 1 < t < 1

Recall as well that using the geometric sequence  

The ratio test becomes

which is the SAME as the common ratio for the geometric sequence, and which in order to converge to the value   requires that the absolute valu of the common ration be smaller than "1" rendering the same radius of convergence as discussed above.

y-1700=200(x+4)

step-by-step explanation:

200(x+4) is 200x + 800 she is saving 200 per week x is the weeks and the -1700 is. us that’s howmuch she already had

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5
