This sequence (1.6, 0.8, 0.4, 0.2,... ) is geometric.
We have formula for any member of geometric sequence:

If a1=1.6 then:

The solution for all these equations is: q=0.5. We have: a1=1.6, q=0.5 and this is geometric sequence.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5bh = 36
0.5(5b)(5h) = 25(0.5bh) = 25 × 36 = 900 sq cm
Answer:
-88 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the relation ...
time = distance/speed
to compare the times in the two directions.

The wind speed is -88 miles per hour.
_____
The problem statement tells us the travel is slower <em>with</em> the wind than <em>against</em> the wind. Hence "with the wind" must be subtracting from the net speed. That is, the wind speed is negative.
