Answer:

The next number in the sequence is 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence you present is a geometric sequence. Geometric sequences are sequences in which successive terms are increases/decreases of an initial number by a common constant factor and are defined as

An= A0*r^(n-1)

The nth term of the sequence is the first term A1 multiplied by a common factor r.

In your problem A1 is 9. The common factor between terms is 1/3 because

9* (1/3) = 9/3= 3

3* (1/3) = 9/3= 1

1* (1/3) = 1/3= 1/3

So the fifth term n= 5 is

An= A0*r^(n-1)

A5=9*(1/3)^(5-1) =9*(1/3)^(4) =9*(1/81)=9/81= 1/9

The answer is 1/9

A car traveling at a certain speed will travel 76 feet per second. How many miles will the car travel in 3.1 hours if it maintai
liubo4ka [24]
Keeping in mind that, there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, and 60 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in each minute, thus 60*60 seconds in an hour, or 3600 seconds.

\bf \cfrac{76~\underline{feet}}{\underline{sec}}\cdot \cfrac{mile}{5280~\underline{feet}}\cdot \cfrac{3600~\underline{sec}}{hr}\implies \cfrac{76\cdot 3600~mile}{5280~hr}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{570~mile}{11~hr}\approx 51.\overline{81}\frac{mile}{hr}\\\\
