Answer:

To determine the common ratio of a geometric sequence. You just need to divide any two consecutive terms on it. You can see below that all of them have the same quotient.

1.2 / 1.5 = 0.8

0.96 / 1.2 = 0.8

0.768 / 0.96 = 0.8

.

Decimal form = 0.8

Fraction form = 4/5

.

Check:

1.5 x 0.8 = 1.2

1.5 x 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 = 1.2

Therefore, the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768 is 0.8 or 4/5.

Triangle ABC has a perimeter of 22cm.
Paha777 [63]
First let's find the length of the last side. We can do this by adding AB and BC together, then subtracting this amount from the perimeter of Triangle ABC, 22 cm.
ABC - (AB + BC) ⇒ 22cm - (8cm + 5cm)
                                    22cm - 13cm = 9cm

The hypotenuse is always the longest side of a triangle, so we know that the side we figured out is the hypotenuse. Now we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to see whether the triangle is a right triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c², where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse.
If a² + b² do equal c², then the triangle is a right triangle.

8² + 5² = 9²
64 + 25 = 81
89 > 81

The triangle is not a right triangle, but we know that it is obtuse since a and b together are longer than c.

Find two consecutive even integers such that 3 times the smaller integer is 16 more than twice the larger
Verdich [7]

n, n + 2 - two consecutive even integers

3n = 2(n + 2) + 16     |use distributive property

3n = (2)(n) + (2)(2) + 16

3n = 2n + 4 + 16

3n = 2n + 20     |subtract 2n from both sides

n = 20

n + 2 = 20 + 2 = 22

Answer: 20, 22.
