I have some geometric sequence questions, will give 5 points for every answer and will give Brainliest!
kherson [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) since the sixth term is 3 and the fifth term 24, the common ratio would be 3/24 = 1/8

The formula for finding the nth term of a geometric sequence is

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

If t6 = 3,r = 1/8, then

3 = a × 1/8^(6 - 1) = a × (1/8)^5

a = 3/(0.125)^5 = 98304

The first term is 98304.

Second term is 98304 × 1/8 = 12288

Third term is 12288 × 1/8 = 1536

Third term is 1536 × 1/8 = 192

2) t1 = 4

t2 = - 3t(2- 1) = - 3t1 = - 3 × 4 = - 12

t3 = - 3t(3- 1) = - 3t2 = - 3 × - 12 = 36

t4 = - 3t(4- 1) = - 3t3 = - 3 × 36 = - 108

3) let the numbers be t2,t3 and t4

The sequence becomes

1/2, t2,t3, t4,8

The formula for finding the nth term of a geometric sequence is

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

8 = 1/2 × r^(5 - 1)

8 = 1/2 × r^4

16 = r^4

2^4 = r^4

r = 2

t2 = 1/2 × 2 = 1

t3 = 1 × 2 = 2

t4 = 2 × 2 = 4

There is a store downtown that sells clothes. The owner has his own method of pricing items. A coat costs $20, a hat costs $15,
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

He is basically pricing things by the count of 5. So, you can assume that it would cost $25.

Idk, this is a weird problem

otez555 [7]

Answer:

The equation is not linear. So the slope does not exist. Not linear.


Maybe you wrote the equation wrong? If so, let me know and I'll tell you what the answer is.
