The second term of a geometric sequence is 6. The common ratio of the sequence is two-thirds. Write the first five terms of the

sequence and write a rule for the sequence.

A2 = 6 = a1*(2/3)
a1 = 6/(2/3) = 9

The rule for the sequence is
.. an = 9*(2/3)^(n -1)

The first 5 terms are
.. 9, 6, 4, 8/3, 16/9

the current temperature in smalltown is 20 degrees fahrenheit. this is 6 degrees less than twice the temperature that it was six

Fed [463]

The answer should be 4.

Divide 20 by 2. Thus then you subtract 6.

Your final answer is 4.
$20 \div 2 - 6$

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points(-13,-18),(0.-17)

Jet001 [13]

The slope formula is

=2−1/2−1

For the first one it would be:

-17-(-18)/0-(-13)=1/13

m=1/13

Second one:

m=−16−−9/−17−−18= -7/1

m=-7

For the there one:

Slope =−12−−13/6−−1=1/7

m=1/7

I hope it was helpful. If you have any questions let me know.

Write your numbet ad a mixed numbet in simplest form

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

the answer is $2\frac{5}{12}$ hours

Step-by-step explanation:

so first we have to turn the fractions into mixed fractions, in order to do that we multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator, our answer becomes the new numerator over the same denominator.

$3\frac{3}{4}$

3 x 4 + 3

12 + 3

15

$\frac{15}{4}$

we do the same thing again.

$1\frac{1}{3}$

1 x 3 + 1

3 + 1

4

$\frac{4}{3}$

then after we get our mixed fractions we subtract them from each other. Since the denominators are not the same we multiply to get the same denominators.

$\frac{15}{4}-\frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{15*3}{4*3}-\frac{4*4}{3*4}$

$\frac{45}{12}-\frac{16}{12}$

we subtract the numerators and keep the denominators.

$\frac{29}{12}$

then we simplify.

$2\frac{5}{12}$
