Question 23875: Classify the Exact Distance from the Declared Center

Original question and givens

Use a_n=(25/26)^n for every n≥0, positive q=25/26, center=12, point=12. Give (coefficient_law, center, point, distance, radius, classification, absolutely_convergent, certificate).

• G001 — Use a_n=(25/26)^n for every n≥0, positive q=25/26, center=12, point=12. Give (coefficient_law, center, point, distance, radius, classification, absolutely_convergent, certificate).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

source operation=radius-inside-outside-audit;original snapshot and mathematics retained

explicit ordered source output fields=[coefficient_law, center, point, distance, radius, classification, absolutely_convergent, certificate]

Radius ORIGINAL positive coefficient-ratio reciprocal := div(1, 25/26)

Radius ORIGINAL positive coefficient-ratio reciprocal = 26/25

ORIGINAL WHOLE a_n=(25/26)^n for EVERY n>=0;center=12;positive q=25/26

absolute geometric term ratio=q*|x-center|;less than1 gives absolute convergence,greater than1 makes terms not tend0;exact radius1/q=26/25

Radius ORIGINAL point minus SAME center := sub(12, 12)

Radius ORIGINAL point minus SAME center = 0

ORIGINAL point=12,SAME center=12;signed difference=0;absolute distance=0;radius=26/25

distance<radius=Yes;classification=absolute_convergence;distance equality is OUTSIDE this operation,not silently classified

Reverse checks

• S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
• S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute Radius ORIGINAL point minus SAME center with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
• S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute Radius ORIGINAL positive coefficient-ratio reciprocal with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(a_n=(25/26)^n_for_every_n>=0, 12, 12, 0, 26/25, absolute_convergence, Yes, classification_uses_exact_distance_from_center)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
