Answer: -13.75

Step-by-step explanation:

In geometric sequence a , ar , ar^2 , ar^3 , where each term is given by :-

T_n=ar^{n-1} , where r= common ratio

a= first term.

n= Number of term

The given  geometric sequence : -880, -220, -55,...

First term : a=-880

Second term : ar=-220

Now  , r=\dfrac{ar}{a}=\dfrac{-220}{-880}=\dfrac{1}{4}

Now , the next term will be the 4th term , so for n=4 , we have

Fourth term =ar^{4-1}=ar^3

Put value of a and r , we get

Fourth term =(-880)(\dfrac{1}{4})^3=\dfrac{-880}{64}=-13.75[/tex]

Hence, the next term in the sequence is -13.75 .

Use the Law of Cosines to find the missing angle. In triangle JKL, j=3in., k=4in., and l=2.89., find mJ
slega [8]
Using the law of cosine for Triangle KJL, we can write:

j^{2} = k^{2} + l^{2}-2(k)(l)cos(J)  \\  \\ &#10;2(k)(l)cos(J)=k^{2} + l^{2}- j^{2} \\  \\ &#10;cos(J)= \frac{k^{2} + l^{2}- j^{2}}{2(k)(l)}

Using the values of k,j and l, we can write:

cos(J)= \frac{ 4^{2} + (2.89)^{2} - 3^{2} }{2(4)(2.89)}  \\  \\ &#10;cos(J)= 0.664 \\  \\ &#10;J= cos^{-1}(0.664) \\  \\ &#10;J=48.39

Rounding to nearest integer, the measure of angle J will be 48 degrees.
So option B gives the correct answer
