Find the 8th term of the geometric sequence 5, -15, 45

Mathematics
1 answer:
FrozenT [24]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a₈ = - 10935

Step-by-step explanation:

the nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

here a₁ = 5 and r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} } = \frac{-15}{5} = - 3 , then

a₈ = 5 × (-3)^{7} = 5 × - 2187 = - 10935

Whats is 0.000001 written as a power of ten
siniylev [52]
You need to move the decimal point to be at 1.

Since this is a decimal, the power will be negative.

I had to move the decimal 6 places.

So,

1^-6

I hope this helps!

Two figures are similar, and the scale factor is 2/3
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The answer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor between the figures is 2/3, this means that the ratio of the smaller figure to the larger figure is 2/3:

\frac{smaller\:figure}{larger\:figure}=\frac{2}{3}.

So when a side of the the larger figure is 12 then:

\frac{smaller\:figure\: side}{12}=\frac{2}{3}

Therefore

smaller\:figure\:side=\frac{2}{3}*12=8.

Thus the length of the corresponding smaller side is 8.
