Find x so that x, X +2, X'+3 are the first three terms of a geometric sequence. Then find the 5" term of the
velikii [3]

Answer:

The fifth term is -1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first three terms of the geometric sequence is <em>x, x</em> + 2, and <em>x </em>+ 3.

So, our first term is <em>x</em>.

Then our second term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio <em>r</em>. So:

x+2=xr

And our third term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio <em>r</em> twice. Therefore:

x+3=xr^2

Solve for <em>x</em>. From the second term, we can divide both sides by <em>x: </em>

\displaystyle r=\frac{x+2}{x}

Substitute this into the third equation:

\displaystyle x+3=x\Big(\frac{x+2}{x}\Big)^2

Square:

\displaystyle x+3 = x\Big( \frac{(x+2)^2}{x^2} \Big)

Simplify:

\displaystyle x+3=\frac{(x+2)^2}{x}

We can multiply both sides by <em>x: </em>

x(x+3)=(x+2)^2

Expand:

x^2+3x=x^2+4x+4

Isolate the <em>x: </em>

-x=4

Hence, our first term is:

x=-4

Then our common ratio <em>r</em> is:

\displaystyle r=\frac{(-4)+2}{-4}=\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac{1}{2}

So, our first term is -4 and our common ratio is 1/2.

Then our sequence will be -4, -2, -1, -1/2, -1/4.

You can verify that the first three terms indeed follow the pattern of <em>x</em>, <em>x</em> + 2, and <em>x</em> + 3.

So, our fifth term is -1/4.

2. Lamar purchases comic books at garage
Otrada [13]

<u>Answer:</u>

Lamar will charge\$7 to the comic dealer for a comic book.

<u>Solution:</u>

It is given that lamar purchases a comic book for \$4. He then marks up the price of a comic book by 75\% which means he increases the price of the book by 75\% and then sells it to the comic dealer.

We have to find out how much will he charge the comic book dealer.

New price of the book after lamar marks up the price is given by

New price =  \$4 + \frac{75}{100} \times \$4

=\$4 + \$3= \$7

Thus, lamar will charge \$7 to the comic dealer for a comic book.
