Each length is 72 times longer so the actual dimensions are 381.6cm by 576 cm

what is the common ratio for the geometric sequence below, written as a fraction? 768, 480, 300, 187.5, …

Crazy boy [7]

Let

$a1=768\\a2=480\\a3=300\\a4=187.5$

Step $1$

Find $\frac{a2}{a1}$

$\frac{a2}{a1} =\frac{480}{768}$

Divide by $96$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{480}{768} =\frac{\frac{480}{96}}{\frac{768}{96}} \\ \\ \frac{480}{768}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a2=a1*\frac{5}{8}$

Step $2$

Find $\frac{a3}{a2}$

$\frac{a3}{a2} =\frac{300}{480}$

Divide by $60$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{300}{480} =\frac{\frac{300}{60}}{\frac{480}{60}} \\ \\ \frac{300}{480}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a3=a2*\frac{5}{8}$

Step $3$

Find $\frac{a4}{a3}$

$a4=187.5 \\ a4=187\frac{1}{2} \\ \\ a4=\frac{375}{2}$

$\frac{a4}{a3} =\frac{\frac{375}{2}}{300} \\ \\ \frac{a4}{a3} =\frac{375}{600}$

Divide by $75$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{375}{600} =\frac{\frac{375}{75}}{\frac{600}{75}} \\ \\ \frac{375}{600}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a4=a3*\frac{5}{8}$

In this problem

The geometric sequence formula is equal to

$a(n+1)=a(n)*\frac{5}{8}\\$

For $n\geq 1$

therefore

the answer is

the common ratio for the geometric sequence above is $\frac{5}{8}$

Write an equation of the line below

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

y=-1/3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this line is negative, and is equal to rise over run.

To find slope, count the number of spaces it has moved down or up, and then the number of spaces it has moved left or right.

The y intercept is represented by +1, and is where the line crosses the y axis.

Hope this helps!
