We use equations for geometric sequence. We do as follows:<span>

a(n) = a(1) r^(n-1)
20 = ar^(2-1)
</span>20 = ar<span>
a = 20/r

11.25= ar^(4-1)
</span>11.25 = ar^3
<span>11.25 = (20/r)r^3
r = 0.75

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

The sum of the roots of 8x^2- 2x
Andrews [41]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the roots of the expression, factor the expression by GCF.

8x^2 - 2x\\2x(4x-1)

The roots are the factors set equal to 0 and solved for x.

2x = 0

x=0

4x-1 = 0

x = 1/4

The sum is the addition of the two roots 0 + 1/4 = 1/4

How do you evaluate logarithms? Explain using an example or mathematical evidence to support your answer.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: Explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all you need to know how to convert a logarithm into an exponential expression. The property is:

log_Bx=n

This is the same as: B^n=x

Example 1:

log_99=

We are trying to find what to raise 9 to, in order to get a result of 9.

9^x=9

When you have same bases, you equal exponents.

x=1

Therefore; log_99=1

Example 2:

log_232=

2^x=32

In this case, we have to make sure both sides have the same base. 32 can have a base of 2 if expressed as: 2^5 which is 2*2*2*2*2

Rewriting this example we have;

2^x=2^5

Since we have the same base, we equal exponents.

x=5

Therefore; log_232=5

Example 3:

log_3729=

3^x=729

729 can have a base of 3 if expressed as: 3^6

3^x=3^6

x=6
