Answer:
an=1*2.5^(n-1)
=2.5^(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete question below:
What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio? Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence. On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).
Solution
Point (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).
a=1
ar=2.5
ar^2=6.25
From ar and ar^2
r=6.25/2.5
=2.5
r=2.5
an=ar^(n-1)
Therefore, the explicit formula is
an=1*2.5^(n-1)
=2.5^(n-1)
Answer:
Distance between Archimedes and the rock = 7.51 m ≅
Step-by-step explanation:
The sunlight makes an angle of depression of 43 degrees
Hence angle between the rock and the sunlight rays is = 90-43=47 degrees
Distance between Archimedes and the rock = Tan 47 = X/7
X = 7 tan 47 = 7.506580970172 = 7.51m ≅
B is true because 0-(-x) = 0 + x = x
Answer:
The new position of the bird is 1 ft below surface of pond.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Position of water bird after 15ft dive:
11-15= -4ft
- Position of water after rising 3 feet:
-4+3= -1ft
Therefor it id 1ft below the surface of the pond
