Answer:

The given sequence is geometric sequence

In the given pattern we have next number is a_5=\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given numbers are 64,-16,4,-1

To identify the pattern of the given numbers :

Let a_1=64, a_2=-16 ,a_3=4  and a_4=-1

To find the next number that is a_5

common ratio r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}

=\frac{-16}{64}

r=-\frac{1}{4}

r=\frac{a_3}{a_2}

=\frac{4}{-16}

r=-\frac{1}{4}

Therefore the common ration is r=-\frac{1}{4}

Therefore the given sequence is geometric sequence

The nth term of the geometric sequence is a_n=a_1r^{n-1}

Now find the 5th term so put n=5 , a_1=64andr=\frac{-1}{4} we have

a_5=64(\frac{-1}{4})^{5-1}

=64(\frac{-1}{4})^{4}

=64(\frac{1}{4})^{4}

=64(\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4})

=\frac{1}{4}

Therefore a_5=\frac{1}{4}

PLS PLS PLS I NEED HELP <br> Given * inserted picture* find
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

SinA=5/1 3 CosA=12/13 tanA=5/12. SinC=12/13 CosC=5/13 and tanC=12/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically find the third side by Pythagorean theorem which would get you 13. So 13 is the hypotenuse. Remember these 3 formulas. Sin=Opposite/Hypotenuse Cos=Adjacent/hypotenuse and Tan=opposite/Adjacent. So for Sin a the opposite side to angle A is 5. The hypotenuse is always the same which would be 13. So Sin a is 5/13. For cos the side adjacent would be 12. So it is 12/13. *Note Hypotenuse cannot be considered the adjacent.

Graph the function by making a table of values which table is correct
Talja [164]

It is often more convenient to evaluate a polynomial when it is written is "Horner form."

... f(x) = (((10x -4)x -8)x +3)x -6

The graphs offered can be distinguished by their values of f(1) and f(2), so our table can be a short one.

... f(1) = (((10·1 -4)1 -8)1 +3)1 -6 = -5 . . . . . . . eliminates graph d

... f(2) = (((10·2 -4)2 -8)2 +3)2 -6 = 96 . . . . eliminates graphs a and c

The appropriate choice is b.

Tests show that the hydrogen ion concentration of a sample of apple juice is 0.0003 and that of ammonia is 3.1 x 10^-9. Find the
scoundrel [369]
PH can be calculated using the following equation 
pH = -log [H₃O⁺]
for apple juice the hydronium /hydrogen ion concentration is 0.0003
pH = -log (0.0003)
pH = 3.5
correct answer is C

For ammonia 
pH = -log (3.1 x 10⁻⁹)
pH = 8.5 
answer should be 8.5
