In mathematics, the Nth harmonic number is defined to be 1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + ... + 1/N. So, the first harmonic number is 1, th

e second is 1.5, the third is 1.83333... and so on. Assume that n is an integer variable whose value is some positive integer N. Assume also that cl is a variable whose value is the Nth harmonic number. Write an expression whose value is the (N+1)th harmonic number.

Answer:

cl   +   1/(N+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the Nth harmonic number is cl. Then we are assuming that 1+1/2+1/3+1/4+...+1/N=cl

And we know that the (N+1)th harmonic number can be found by doing

1+1/2+1/3+1/4+...+1/N+1/(N+1)

=cl    +   1/(N+1)

The (N+1)th harmonic number is cl   +   1/(N+1) given that the Nth term is cl

Other way to see the answers:

Maybe you want to write it as a single fraction so you have

[cl(N+1)+1]/(N+1)=[cl*N+cl+1]/(N+1)

A stick of butter in the shape of a rectangular prism has a length of 8 inches, a width of 3 inches, and a height of 3 inches. W
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

72in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

the information we know about the shape of the stick of butter:  

length = 8in

width = 3in

height=3in

The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is:

volume=length*width*height

we find the volume by multiplying ll the measurements of the stick.

So we substitute the values to find the volume and we get the following:

volume=8in*3in*3in\\volume=72in^3

the volume of the stick of butter is 72in^3

From the descriprion Tristan got in the elevator on the second floor   (2nd). He went five floors down toward the Parking garage this meant at the end of the journey he was on the seventh (7th) floor of the building. He went back of six (6) More floors before existing the elevator this would put Tristan on first (1st) floor of the building.

Circle D circumscribes ABC and ABE. Which statements about the triangles are true? Statement I: The perpendicular bisectors of A
mestny [16]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. I and II

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement I: The perpendicular bisectors of ABC intersect at the same point as those of ABE

The above statement is correct because given that ΔABC and ΔABE are inscribed in the circle with center D, their sides are equivalent or similar to tangent lines shifted closer to the circle center such that the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of ΔABC and ΔABE are on the same path as a line joining tangents to the center pf the circle

Which the indicates that the perpendicular the bisectors of the sides of ΔABC and ΔABE will pass through the same point which is the circle center D

Statement II: The distance from C to D is the same as the distance from D to E

The above statement is correct because, D is the center of the circumscribing circle and D and E are points on the circumference such that distance C to D and D to E are both equal to the radial length

Therefore;

The distance from C to D = The distance from D to E = The length of the radius of the circle with center D

Statement III: Bisects CDE

The above statement may be requiring more information

Statement IV The angle bisectors of ABC intersect at the same point as those of ABE

The above statement is incorrect because, the point of intersection of the angle bisectors of ΔABC and ΔABE are the respective in-centers found within the perimeter of ΔABC and ΔABE respectively and are therefore different points.
