Answer:
The explicit rule of the geometric sequence
aₙ = 187.5 (0.8)ⁿ⁻¹
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em> Step(i):-</em></u>
Given that the third term of the sequence = 120
tₙ = a rⁿ⁻¹
t₃ = a r³⁻¹ = ar²
120 = ar² ..(i)
Given that the fifth term of the given geometric sequence = 76.8
tₙ = a rⁿ⁻¹
t₅ = a r⁵⁻¹ = a r⁴
76.8 = a r⁴...(ii)
<u><em>Step(ii):</em></u>-
Dividing (ii) and (i)

r² = 0.64
r =√ 0.64 = 0.8
Substitute r= 0.8 in equation (i)
120 = ar²
120 = a(0.8)²
⇒ 
<u><em>Step(iii):-</em></u>
The explicit rule of the geometric sequence
aₙ = a rⁿ⁻¹
put a= 187.5 and r = 0.8
aₙ = 187.5 (0.8)ⁿ⁻¹

3/12which in lowest term is 1/6
recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time.
let's say we have two trains, A and B, A is going at 85 mph and B at 65 mph.
they are 210 miles apart and moving toward each other, at some point they will meet, when that happens, the faster train A has covered say d miles, and the slower B has covered then the slack from 210 and d, namely 210 - d.
When both trains meet, A has covered more miles than B because A is faster, however the time both have been moving, is the same, say t hours.

Answer:
B (√6)/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest multiplier that will make the denominator of the fraction into a perfect square is 2, so you have ...

_____
Answer choice D is also a correct rationalization of the denominator, but is not simplified as far as it can be. √24 = 2√6, so a factor of 2 can be cancelled from numerator and denominator, giving answer choice B.
