What is a formula for the nth term of the given sequence?<br> 36, 24, 16...
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The formula to find the nth term of the given sequence is 54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for nth term of an geometric progression is :

a_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n})}{r}

In this example, we have a_{1} = 36 (the first term in the sequence) and

r = \frac{2}{3} (the rate in which the sequence is changing).

Knowing what the values for r and a_{1} are, now we can solve.

a_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n})}{r} = \frac{36 (\frac{2}{3} ^{n}) }{\frac{2}{3} } = 54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

Therefore, the formula to find the nth term of the given sequence is

54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

QveST [7]

Answer:

b = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle are 180

80+40+b = 180

Combine like terms

120+b =180

Subtract 120 from each side

b = 180-120

b = 60

Darya [45]

Answer:

49145 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In a certain country the life expectancy for women in 1990 was 45 and in 2000 it was 85?years.

Assuming that life expectancy between 2000 and 2100 increases by the same percentage as it did between 1900 and 2000,what will life expectancy be for women in 2100?

In 10 years, the expectancy increased by 85/45 = 17/9

between 2000 and 2100, it will increas by 10 time 10 years, so expected expectancy is  85*(\frac{85}{45})^{10} = 49145  years
