OH right! I should have realised that!

S6 =  7,812 = a1 * (5^6 - 1)
                               -----------  were  a1 = first term
                                 5 -  1

3906*a1 = 7812
a1 = 7812 / 3906 =  2

Therfore the second term = 2*5  = 10 Answer

almond37 [142]

Answer:

3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break it down.

Sparkles used 12 balloons total to make 4 balloon animals. Divide 12 by 4, and you will get 3.

What I did for part 2 of the equation, is I multiplied 4 and 5 by 3 to ensure the variable matched my calculations. 4x3 is 12, and 5x3 is 15. add 12 and 15, and you will get 27 total balloons.

If the length of the minute hand of the clock in London commonly known as “Big Ben” is 11.25’ from the center of the clock to th
rodikova [14]
First, we should figure out the area of the entire face of the clock because we need that information to solve the problem. The formula for the area of a circle is A=pi*r^2. Since we know that r (radius) is equal to 11.25 feet, we can plug this in for r and solve for A: A=pi*11.25^2 which equals A=397.61 ft^2 rounded to the nearest hundredth. 

Now, to find the area the hand sweeps over in 5 minutes, we should determine how much of the clock the hand sweeps over in 5 minutes. Think about it like this: since 5 minutes goes into 60 minutes 12 times (60/5=12), then 5 minutes is one twelfth of the clock's face. Therefore, we are going to divide the total area by 12 (397.61/12) to get 33.13 ft^2, so the answer is C.

I hope this helps.
