Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio in a geometric sequence is the number you multiply to previous term to get the term after.
Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by that 1/number.
So the common ratio here is 1/4.
This is a geometric sequence since you are able to find all the terms in this sequence by multiplying 1/4 to it's previous term.
Examples:
160(1/4)=40
40(1/4)=10
10(1/4)=10/4=2.5
2.5(1/4)=2.5/4=0.625.
Unsure how your teacher wants the table to be filled out, but the solution is about 1.62.
Answer:
14 and 22
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the first number, then 36-x is the second. We are told that ...
2x -(36-x) = 6 . . . . twice the first less the second is 6
3x = 42 . . . . . . . . . add 36
x = 14
(36 -x) = 22
The numbers are 14 and 22.
First, find the area of both beds!
For Heidi: 5 x 3 = 15
For Andrew: 5 x (3 x 2) = 30 ft
Added together, the beds have an area of 45 feet. To place soil with a depth of 2 feet, simply multiply by 2. You can think of this as finding the volume of the beds, which is length x width x height, or area x height. The answer is 90 cubic feet!
