Answer:

The missing terms are 768, 192, 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given geometric sequence

First term= a_1=3072

Fifth Term= a_5=12  

The general form of a geometric sequence is:

a_n=ar^(n-1)

here a_nis the nth term, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

We will use the general form for term 5 to calculate the value of r.

So the general form for term 5 will be

a_5=3072* r^(5-1)

Putting the value of a_5

12=3072* r^4

r^4=  12/3072

r^4=  1/256

r^4=  1/[(4)^4]

Solving for r  

r=  1/4

Now  

a_2= ar^(2-1)

a_2=3072*r

a_2=3072*  1/4

a_2=768

a_3= ar^(3-1)

a_3=3072*r^2

a_3=3072*(1/4)^2

a_3=3072*  1/16

a_3=192

a_4= ar^(4-1)

a_4=3072*r^3

a_4=3072*(1/4)^3

a_4=3072*  1/64

a_4=48

Work out the formula for the nth term of the<br>quadratic sequence:<br>5, 11, 19, 29​
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

n squared + 3n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5,11,19,29

Firstly look at the difference between each number. The first difference is 6 then 8 then 10 etc. After that you look at your created sequence - 6,8,10 etc. The difference is 2 each time. Then applying rules, you have to do the constant difference divided by 2 to get a coefficient of n squared. So in this case it's n squared because 2/2 = 1 so you don't have to place a 1 in front of the n squared. After you create a sequence from the n squared. That would be 1,4,9 etc. Then you need to see how to get from the sequence: 1,4,9 etc to your original sequence: 5,11,19 etc. So if you calculate it you will get 4,7,10 because firstly 5-1 = 4 then 11-4 = 7 etc. The sequence 4,7,10 is a linear sequence so the constant difference is 3 each time. So to get a nth term of a linear sequence you will start off as 3n then you will substitute 1 then 2 then 3 into the 3n. Therefore that would be 3,6 etc. So if you take the first substituted term, that would be 3 as said before then you will have to see how to get from the 3 to 4 so that is just adding 1. So the nth term of this linear sequence is 3n + 1. Check if it works at the end. So the overall nth term of the quadratic sequence is n squared as said before + 3n + 1.

What is 36 to 21 ratio in simplest form?
OLga [1]
36:21 in simplest form is 12:7, because 3 goes into both 36 and 21. Simplifying ratios is essentially the same thing as simplifying fractions. Once we have 12:7, we can't reduce any further, because 7 is prime.

Hope this helps!
