There are a lot of problems here so I'll try to be brief with each one so I don't add a lot of clutter

Problem 10) This is <u>arithmetic</u> because we subtract 6 from each term to get the next. This is the same as adding on -6. The common difference is d = -6. The first term is a = 1

Problem 11) <u>Neither</u>. The distance from 3 to 3/2 = 1.5 is 1.5 units, but the distance from 1.5 to 1 is 0.5 units. This implies there is no common difference value. The sequence is not arithmetic because of this. It's also not geometric either. To go from 3 to 3/2, we multiply by 1/2. But then going from 3/2 to 1, we multiply by 2/3. There is no common ratio r value.

Problem 12) This sequence is <u>geometric</u>. We divide each term by 3 to get the next, or put another way, we multiply each term by 1/3 to get the next term. The common ratio is r = 1/3. The first term is a = 108.

Problem 13) <u>Neither</u>. This is because going from term to term, we do not add the same amount each time. Example: from -2 to 4 we add 6, but then from 4 to -6 we add -10. So the sequence is not arithmetic. It's also not geometric either because we dont multiply by the same term each time. Eg: from -2 to 4, we multiply by -2; but from 4 to -6 we multiply by -1.5

Problem 14) The next three terms are: <u>1, 1/4, 1/16</u>. This is found by multiplying each term by the common ratio r = 1/4, or you can think of dividing each term by 4. To get this common ratio, pick any term you want and divide it by its previous term. Example: term2/term1 = 16/64 = 1/4 = common ratio.

Problem 15) The next three terms are: <u>-432, 2592, -15552</u>. You multiply each term by the common ratio -6. Like with the previous problem, we divide any term over its previous one to get the common ratio, so for example, term2/term1 = -12/2 = -6 = common ratio.

The pyramid shown has a square base that is 12 inches on each side. It has a surface area of 336 square inches. What is the slan
blagie [28]
Let b and h represent the length of the side of the base and the slant height, respectively. Then the total surface area is
  A = b² + 4*(1/2)bh
  A = b² +2bh

Substituting the given numbers, you have
  336 = 12² +2·12·h
  192 = 24h . . . . . . . . . subtract 12² = 144
  8 = h . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 24

The slant height is 8 inches.

5/8+3/4 / -2/3 - 5/6 =​
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

-11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 5/8+3/4 (6/8) which is 11/8 and then get -2/3 - 5/6 which simplifies to -3/2

Multiply -3/2 by 4 to get it to like terms

11/8 / -12/8

Multiply and then simplify.

HURRY Given f(x) = - 3/4x + 2, find ƒ(16). The solution is
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

\fbox {f(16) = -10}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u> :

f(x) = -3/4x + 2

<u>Substitute x = 16</u> :

f(16) = -3/4(16) + 2

f(16) = -12 + 2

f(16) = -10
