What is the 8th term of the geometric sequence a2 = 20 and r = 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
algol [13]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

8th term of geometric sequence is 312500

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given :  a_2=20 and common ratio (r) = 5

We have to find the 8th term of the geometric sequence whose a_2=20 and common ratio (r) = 5  

Geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers in which next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio (r).

     a_n=ar^{n-1}  ......(1)

where  a_n  is nth term and a is first term.

For given sequence

a can be find using  a_2=20 and r =  5

Substitute in (1) , we get,

a_2=ar^{2-1}

\Rightarrow 20=a(5)  

\Rightarrow a=4

Thus, 8th term of the sequence denoted as  a_8

Substitute n= 8 in (1) ,  we get,

a_8=ar^{8-1} \\\\a_8=(4)r_{7} \\\\a_8=4(5)^7=4 \times 78125=312500

Thus 8th term of geometric sequence is 312500

Answer this please!​
Troyanec [42]

f(x) = 4x + 3

That's one-to-one, a linear function that will give a different f(x) for each different x.

For the inverse let's swap x and y and solve for y

x = 4y + 3

x - 3 = 4y

y = (x- 3)/4

That's the inverse,

Answer:  (x- 3)/4, second choice

The domain and range of the inverse is all real numbers.  It's two lines; I'll leave the graphing to you.

What is the y intercept of 60x+55y=660 [with work shown]
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

(11, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the y intercept, set y to 0.

60x + 55y = 660

60x + 55 * 0 = 660

60x = 660

60x/60 = 660/60

x = 11

y intercept is (11, 0)

DO NOT ANSWER IF YOU DO NOT KNOW
aliina [53]

Answer:

By saying "paying the same rate"

I believe you want to know for example when two people are buying a product how to know if they are paying the same amount.

If so then there are a couple of factors at play.

First of all you need to identify the GDP of the product and the amount of tax/VAT which if calculated properly may help you tell if they are paying the same amount or not.
