Find the common ratio and an explicit form in each of the following geometric sequences.

Margaret [11]3 years ago

Answer:

The explicit form is a_{n}=162(2/3)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit form of a geometric sequence is given by:

a_{n}=ar^{n-1}

where an is the nth term, a is the first term of the sequence and r is the common ratio.

In this case:

a=162

The value of the common ratio is obtained by dividing one term by the previous term.

For the first and second terms:

108/162=2/3

For the second and third terms (In order to prove that 2/3 is the common ratio)

72/108=2/3

Therefore:

r=2/3

Replacing a and r in the formula:

a_{n}=162(2/3)^{n-1}

Answer:

3x+y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Just remember that standard form is expressed as Ax+By=C. I also attached a picture to prove that 3x+y=2 is the standard form equation that makes up the line.

Hope this helps and answers your question :)

If the trapezoid on the grid below is translated by using the rule (x,y)-> (x-4,y-3) what will be the coordinates of B’?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

B'(3, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rule for the translation of a point (x, y) by 'h' units left and 'k' units upwards,

(x, y) → (x - h, y + k)

If h = 4 and k = 3,

(x, y)\rightarrow(x-4,y+3)

Following this rule coordinates of the image point of B will be,

B(7, 2) → B'(7 - 4, 2 + 3)

           → B'(3, 5)

Therefore, coordinates of the image point B' will be,

B'(3, 5)
