The standard form of a geometric sequence is a_{n}=a_{1}(r)^{n-1}. We are told that the first number in the sequence is 5 and the second number is -10. Geometric sequences rely on that r to be a common ratio which is a muliplier. So to get from 5 to -10 we have to multiply by -2. That means that r = -2. Our formula then is a_{n}=5(-2)^{n-1} and any value could be subbed in for n to find that specific number in the sequence. A geometric sequence may be thought of as an exponential function whose domain is the set of natural numbers.

Your friend George is 6 feet tall and his shadow is 10 feet long. At the same time, the shadow of the flagpole was 85 feet long.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

51 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the height of a flagpole

we know that

Using proportion

\frac{6}{10}=\frac{x}{85} \\\\x=6*85/10\\\\x=51\ ft

A NASA spacecraft measures the rate R of at which atmospheric pressure on Mars decreases with altitude. The result at a certain
AysviL [449]

Answer:

R = 0.0000498 \frac{KJ}{ m m^3}=0.0000498 \frac{KJ}{m^4}=4.98x10^{-5}\frac{KJ}{m^4}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following value:

R = 0.0498 \frac{Kpa}{Km}

We can convert this first to \frac{Kpa}{m} like this:

R=0.0498 \frac{Kpa}{Km} *\frac{1km}{1000m}=0.0000498 \frac{Kpa}{m}

Now we use the fact the the pressure is defined as P =\frac{F}{A}, whre P is the pressure, F the force and A the area, so then Kpa= \frac{KN}{m^2} and then we can replace this:

R=0.0000498 \frac{KN}{m^3}

Now from definition of work we know that W= Fd where W is the work, F the force and d the distance, so then is equivalent KN =\frac{KJ}{m}

And if we replace this into the equation we got:

R = 0.0000498 \frac{KJ}{ m m^3}=0.0000498 \frac{KJ}{m^4}=4.98x10^{-5}\frac{KJ}{m^4}
