The twelfth element of the geometric sequence is equal to 4,096. (Correct choice: D)

<h3>How to find a determined element of a geometric sequence by exponential formulae</h3>

Sequences are series of elements generated according to at least one condition, usually equations. geometric sequences are generated according to a exponential formulas, whose form and characteristics are described below:

f(n) = a · bⁿ ⁻ ¹ (1)

Where:

a - First element of geometric sequence
b - Common ratio of the geometric sequence
n - Element index within the geometric sequence

If we know that a = 4, b = 2 and n = 12, then the twelfth element of the geometric sequence from the statement is:

f(12) = 4 · 2¹² ⁻ ¹

f(12) = 4 · 2¹¹

f(12) = 4 · 2,048

f(12) = 4,096

The twelfth element of the geometric sequence is equal to 4,096. (Correct choice: D)

Lastima Nelson, Inc. is recruiting a new Chief Financial Officer (CFO). The recruiting budget is $44,000. Lastima has spent $10,

Musya8 [376]

The budget is $44000

Total spent so far is $10000 + $8500 = $18500

The amount left to spend = 44000 - 18500 = $25500

$25500 is the maximum 6% commission that Lastima Nelson Inc. can spend and stays within the budget

Let the maximum price of the home be $x$
This value of $x$ will be the 100% before the 6% commission is calculated of it.

6% of $x$ is 25500
1% of $x$ is 25500 ÷ 6 = $4250
100% of $x$ is 4250 × 100 = $425,000

So, the maximum value of the home is $425,000

I would say Song 1 on the top could be NO, and Song 1 on the bottom could be ON, then Song 2 on the very top could be NO again, then on the bottom of the very top could OO, then on the bottom of that could be NN, and on he very bottom could be ON.
Hope this helps.

Write: 3^-4 in standard form

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{81}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Key skills: Exponents + Fractions

Use the negative exponent property. If your number is x^-y then it would be the same as 1/x^y

3^-4 is the same as $\frac{1}{3^{4}}$

3^4 is 81, so your answer would be 1/81.

Hope you have a nice day and understood this!
