Find the 6th term of a geometric sequence t3 = 444 and t7 = 7104. So I have to find r. But is this right: 7104 = 444r^4 r^4 = 16

r = 2 Or should it be r^3? I'm never sure if the power is = the number of terms missing or something completely unrelated.

Third term = t3 = ar^2 = 444           eq. (1)

Seventh term = t7 = ar^6 = 7104         eq. (2)

By solving (1) and (2) we get,

              ar^2 = 444    

                => a = 444 / r^2       eq. (3)

And  ar^6 = 7104

 (444/r^2)r^6 = 7104

 444 r^4 = 7104

 r^4 = 7104/444

            = 16

 r2 = 4

 r = 2

Substitute r value in (3)

                         a = 444 / r^2

                             = 444  / 2^2

                             = 444 / 4

                              = 111

Therefore a = 111 and r = 2

Therefore t6 = ar^5

                       = 111(2)^5

                       = 111(32)

                       = 3552.

<span>Therefore the 6th term in the geometric series is 3552.</span>

David is filling five 3/4 quart bottles with a sports drink. His measuring cup only holds 1/4 quart. How many times will David n
OleMash [197]
Well if he is filling one 3/4 quart bottle, then he must fill his measuring cup 3 times, so just multiply it by 5, and you have 15.

David needs to fill the measuring cup 15 times.
