Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{If}\ a_1,\ a_2,\ a_3,\ a_4,\ ...\ ,\ a_n\ \text{is a geometric series, then}\\\\\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{a_4}{a_3}=...=\dfrac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}=r=constant$

$\text{We have}\ 0.75,\ 1.5,\ 3,\ 6,\ ...\\\\\text{The common ratio}\ r:\\\\\dfrac{1.5}{0.75}=2\\\\\dfrac{3}{1.5}=2\\\\\dfrac{6}{3}=2\\\\\boxed{r=2}$

Rafael must choose a number between 67 and 113 that is a multiple of, 2,4, and 5 . Write all the numbers that he could choose.

skelet666 [1.2K]

First, find out what the greatest common factor is between 2, 4, and 5.

This is 20. So any number divisible by 20 is also divisible by 2, 4, and 5. 

Now we find the list of numbers that are multiples of 20 between 67 and 113. 

The solutions are: 

80 and 100.

The circumference of a circular pond is 654 feet.Whats the diameter at a rate of 6 feet per second?

Alex73 [517]

To find the answer we need to find the raduis

Circumference = 2πr
r= $\frac{Circumference}{2 \pi }$
r= $\frac{654}{2 \pi }$
= 104.08

The diameter is 2r, hence the diameter is 208.16

If the rate to cross is 6ft. per second, time can be found by dividing the raduis by 6

It would take 34.7 seconds
