What is the formula for the nth term of the given sequence 100, 20, 4, …

Naily [24]

Answer:

$a_n=100 \left(\dfrac15\right)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of geometric sequence: $a_n=ar^{n-1}$

Given:

a₁ = 100
a₂ = 20
a₃ = 4

$\implies a_1=a=100$

$\implies a_2=100 \cdot r=20$

$\implies a_3=100 \cdot r^2=4$

Common ratio:

$r=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{4}{20}=\dfrac15$

Therefore:

$a_n=100 \left(\dfrac15\right)^{n-1}$

Solve (2x3-5x2+8)(x+3)

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

$(2 {x}^{3} - 5 {x}^{2} + 8)(x + 3) \\ = (2 {x}^{4} - 5 {x}^{3} + 8x + 6 {x}^{3} - 15 {x}^{2} + 24) \\ = 2 {x}^{4} + {x}^{3} - 15 {x}^{2} + 8x + 24$

You are 100m from the base of a tall building. If your feet are exactly 180m from the top of the building, how tall is the build

KatRina [158]

Answer:

the building would be 280 feet (judging on how this is worded.)

Step-by-step explanation:

you are already 100 meters from the base ( bottom) of the building so you add 180 as you are 180 ft from the top of the building. 100 + 180 is equal to 280.

Solve by elimination<br> 5x+4y = 12<br> 3x - 3y = 18<br><br> Please help solve and provide steps.

SOVA2 [1]

First you solve for y.
5x+ y= 12 so Y= 12-5x
And plug it into the next equation
3x- 3(12-5x) = 18
Distribute
3x-36+15x=18
Add 36 to both sides
3x+ 15x= 54
18x= 54 ... divide
x= 3
And you can plug in x to solve for Y
5(3) + y = 12
15+ y = 12 ...subtract 15 from both sides
y= -3
