What is the formula for the following geometric sequence?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Correct answer:  Third answer  aₙ = -5 · 2⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-5, -10, -20, -40,.....

First term       a₁ = -5

Second term a₂ = -10

Third term     a₃ = -20

Common ratio or quotient

q = a₂ / a₁ = a₃ / a₂ = -10 / -5 = -20 / -10 = 2

q = 2

First term  a₁

Second term a₂ = a₁ · q = a₂ · q²

Third term     a₃ = a₂ · q = a₁ · q³

.....................................................

n-th term aₙ = a₁ · q⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

aₙ = -5 · 2⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

Analyze is the product of 0.4×1.8 greater than or less than 0.4?please explain to me
AnnZ [28]
Remember that multiplying is how many times you add a number to itself. If you multiply by 3, you add the first number to itself 3 times.

When you multiply a given number by 1, you get the first number (it doesn't change).

When you multiply by a number less than one, say, one half, you'll end up with half of the original number --> a smaller number.

When you multiply a number by more than one, you will get a number bigger than the original because you are adding it to itself more than once. Even if it is a fraction or decimal, if it is greater than 1, then the new product will be larger than the original number.

Hope this helps! :)

All triangles must equal 180°. So there you have a right angle which = 90° and a 25° angle. add those together to get 115°. Now do 180-115=65°. the missing angle is 65°.
