Answer: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for the sequence is $a_{n}=10(0.5)^{n-1}$

Substituting in n=4,

$a_{4}=10(0.5)^{4-1}=\boxed{1.25}$

Help please I need this

Answer:

Slant Height = 20.1 km
Radius = 9 km
Lateral Area = 568.3 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

The slant height is read from the diagram as 20.1 km.

The radius is half the diameter, so is 9.0 km.

The lateral area is ...

A = πrs = π(9.0 km)(20.1 km) ≈ 568.3 km²

Desmos uses r for a special purpose, so we have used r₁ to signify the radius of the cone. The "round" function works only to round to an integer, so special effort must be used to get rounding to 1 decimal place.

Solve each proportion.<br> 2/4=4/p-3<br>pls help

eduard

Answer:

$p=\frac{8}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{4} = \frac{4}{p} - 3$

$\frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{p} - 3$ (simplify)

$\frac{1}{2}+3 = \frac{4}{p} - 3+3$

$\frac{1}{2}+3 = \frac{4}{p}$ (Add 3 to both sides)

$\frac{7}{2}= \frac{4}{p}$ (simplify)

$\frac{7}{2}p= \frac{4}{p}*p$

$\frac{7p}{2}=4$ (Multiply both sides by p)

$\frac{7p}{2}*2=4*2$

$7p=8$ (Multiply both sides by 2)

$\frac{7p}{7}=\frac{8}{7}$

$p=\frac{8}{7}$ (Divide both sides by 7)
