Your sequence
-8, 16/3, -32/9, 64/27
is a geometric sequence with first term -8 and common ratio
(16/3)/(-8) = (-32/9)/(16/3) = -2/3
The general term an of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and ratio r is given by
an = a1·r^(n-1)
For your sequence, this is
an = -8·(-2/3)^(n-1)
It would be 1,200 because you just have to multiply 400 times 3 hope it helped :)
Answer:
A subway train arrives every 10 minutes during rush hour. We are interested in the length of time a commuter must wait for a train to arrive. The time follows a uniform distribution. Find u, which is the average length of time a commuter must wait for a train to arrive. Round to one decimal place. = 3
The 9-sided polygon will have a central angle between the vertex and the center of one side of 360°/(2*9) = 20°. Then the apothem is
a = (6 in/2)*cot(20°) ≈ 8.242432 in
The perimeter is 9*6 in = 54 in, so the area is
A = (1/2)Pa = (1/2)*(54 in)*(8.242432 in) ≈ 222.5 in²
