Find the fifth term and the nth term of the geometric sequence whose initial term a, and common ratio r are given.

Goryan [66]1 year ago

Answer:

a₅ = 80 , a_{n} = 5(2)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a term in the geometric sequence multiply the previous term by r

a₁ = 5

a₂ = a₁ × 2 = 5 × 2 = 10

a₃ = a₂ × 2 = 10 × 2 = 20

a₄ = a₃ × 2 = 20 × 2 = 40

a₅ = a₄ × 2 = 40 × 2 = 80

the nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

here a₁ = 5 and r = 2 , then

a_{n} = 5 (2)^{n-1}

guapka [62]

Answer:

x = 14/9

Step-by-step explanation:

70 - 8x = 56 + x

- 8x - x = 56 - 70

- 9x = - 14

- x = - 14/9

Can someone please explain how they got this answer because the entire lesson they haven’t shown me how to graph these
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have three types of equations and three plotted graphs

we have a quadratic equation

an exponential equation

and a linear equation

For a quadratic equation, we usually have a parabola

The first equation is quadratic and as such the first graph that is parabolic belongs to it

For an exponential equation, we usually have a graph that rises or falls before becoming flattened

The second equation represents an exponential equation so the second graph is for it

Lastly, we have a linear equation

A linear equation usually has a straight line graph

Thus, as we can see, the third graph represents the linear equation

I'm confused about how to find x.
NikAS [45]
Hi! so you would find x by adding the corners up to 180 degrees.

steps:
Add the corners
90+(2x+1)+(5x+5)
7x+96=180
then subtract 96 from 180
you’d get 7x = 84
then divide 7 on both sides and get x=12

Suppose y varies inversely with x, and y = 32 when x = 4. What is the value of y when x = 8?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation is of the form

xy = k where k is a constant

x=4 and y = 32

4*32 = k

128 = k

xy = 128

Let x = 8

8y = 128

Divide each side by 8

8y/8 = 128/8

y =16
