Answer:
a2 = 12
a3 = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Terms of a geometric sequence have a common ratio. If we call that ratio r, then we have ...
a2 = 4r
a3 = (a2)r = 4r^2
108 = (a3)r = 4r^3
27 = r^3 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
3 = r . . . . . . . . . . cube root
__
a2 = 4(3) = 12
a3 = 12(3) = 36
Answer:
....................
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this one by adding their rates, but you have to invert the numbers they give you to find the rate. Rate is measured in something per unit of time, and "per" indicates division. So the rates are: 1/3 of an hour (Sally) and 1/6 of an hour (Steve). So add the rates: 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2. (1/3 is 2/6, and 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6). Since their combined rate is 1/2 of a room in one hour, it takes them two hours to paint the room.
This answer makes sense: It takes Sally three hours by herself; with Steve's help, she's faster, but not THAT much faster, because he's pretty slow. You can often spot-check word problem answers like this by giving it a common sense once-over. If we came up with four hours, that would clearly be wrong: it should take her LONGER if she's getting help.

Answer:
A) a+bi
Explanation:
Rectangular form of complex numbers is written as a+bi, where a and b are integers.
Rectangular form always has an integer piece, a, and a complex piece, bi.
