Question Number 81369 by mr W last updated on 12/Feb/20

Commented by mr W last updated on 12/Feb/20

This is a repost of Q81308.    I found the answer through the  following way, but it seems lengthy  and complex. Are there any other  standard methods?

I think there is no better method, but you  made a consequent typo 134 instead of 143

can you find the last n with x_n =0?

$$\mathrm{can}\:\mathrm{you}\:\mathrm{find}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{last}\:{n}\:\mathrm{with}\:{x}_{{n}} =\mathrm{0}? \\ $$

thank you for reviewing, and pointing  out the typo! let me thinking about the  question about x_n =0.

I think it′s at n=108

$$\mathrm{I}\:\mathrm{think}\:\mathrm{it}'\mathrm{s}\:\mathrm{at}\:{n}=\mathrm{108} \\ $$

yes! x_(108)  is the last zero term.

$${yes}!\:{x}_{\mathrm{108}} \:{is}\:{the}\:{last}\:{zero}\:{term}. \\ $$
