Can someone please help me find the geometric sequence of

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sati [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

\boxed{a_{n} = 250(0.4)^{n - 1}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the common ratio

a₁ = 200

a₂ = 100

a₃ =  40

a₄ =   16

The ratios of consecutive pairs are

a₄/a₃ =     16/40  = 0.4

a₃/a₂ =   40/100  = 0.4

a₂/a₁ = 100/200  = 0.5

I think you have made a typo in your question. The first term should be 250. Then,

a₂/a₁ = 100/250  = 0.4

And all adjacent pairs will have the same common ratio, r = 0.4.

Step 2. Write the formula for the series

The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

If a₁ = 250, the formula for the series is

\boxed{a_{n} = 250(0.4)^{n - 1}}

60 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting the proportion up:

x/25=24/10

Cross Multiply.

10x=24*25

10x=600

Divide both sides by 10.

Let sin(2x) = cos(x), where 0° ≤ x < 180°. What are the possible values for x?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The possible values of x are 90°, 30° and 150°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

sin(2x) = cos(x) where 0° ≤ x < 180°

We know that, sin(2x) = 2 sinx cosx

2 sinx cosx = cosx

Subtract cosx on both sides

2 sinx cosx - cosx = 0

cosx (2sinx-1)=0

It means, cosx = 0 and (2sin x -1 ) = 0

cos x = cos0           and        sinx = 1/2

x = 90°                     and        x = 30°, 150°

Hence, the possible values of x are 90°, 30° and 150°.

Draw a figure to fit each description.
antiseptic1488 [7]
1)
a) Draw the axis:x-axis is horizontal, y-axis is vertical
b) draw a point on any part of the plane (use color to highlight it)
c) draw a second point on a different part of the plane (again use color)
d) draw the straight line that passes through the two points (use a ruler).

That is it.

2)
a) Draw the axis: x-axis is horizontal and y-axis is vertical
b) Draw a stright line (use a ruler)
c) Draw a second straight line (use a ruler) which is not parallel to the first line. Extend the second line intil it intersects (and passes) the first line. The lines can only intersect in one point (if the lines are parallel they will not intersect each other).
