Which sequences are geometric? Check all that apply.

Mathematics
1 answer:
MatroZZZ [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The geometric sequences are:

16 , -8 , 4 , -2 , 1 ⇒ 2nd

-15 , -18 , -21.6 , -25.92 , -31.104, ........ ⇒ 3rd

625 , 125 , 25 , 5 , 1 , ........ ⇒ 5th

Step-by-step explanation:

In the geometric sequence there is a constant ratio between each two consecutive terms

Let us find which sequence has  a constant ratio between its consecutive terms

-2 , -4 , -6 , -8 , -10

∵ -4 ÷ -2 = 2

∵ -6 ÷ -4 = 1.5

- No constant ratio between the consecutive terms

∴ The sequence is not geometric

16 , -8 , 4 , -2 , 1

∵ -8 ÷ 16 = -0.5

∵ 4 ÷ -8 = -0.5

∵ -2 ÷ 4 = -0.5

∵ 1 ÷ -2 = -0.5

- There is a constant ratio -0.5 between the consecutive terms

∴ The sequence is geometric

-15 , -18 , -21.6 , -25.92 , -31.104, ........

∵ -18 ÷ -15 = 1.2

∵ -21.6 ÷ -18 = 1.2

∵ -25.92 ÷ -21.6 = 1.2

∵ 31.104 ÷ 25.92 = 1.2

- There is a constant ratio 1.2 between the consecutive terms

∴ The sequence is geometric

4 , 10.5 , 17 , 23.5 , 30, ......

∵ 10.5 ÷ 4 = 2.625

∵ 17 ÷ 10.5 = 1.619047619

- No constant ratio between the consecutive terms

∴ The sequence is not geometric

625 , 125 , 25 , 5 , 1 , ........

∵ 125 ÷ 625 = 0.2

∵ 25 ÷ 125 = 0.2

∵ 5 ÷ 25 = 0.2

∵ 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2

- There is a constant ratio 0.2 between the consecutive terms

∴ The sequence is geometric

So here's the question
Lesechka [4]
Yes, is subtraction, to get their "difference".

first off, let's convert the mixed fractions, to "improper", and then subtract.

\bf \stackrel{red~yarn}{9\frac{1}{5}}-\stackrel{blue~yarn}{3\frac{11}{25}}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\&#10;\stackrel{mixed}{9\frac{1}{5}}\implies \cfrac{9\cdot 5+1}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{46}{5}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{11}{25}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 25+11}{25}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{86}{25}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\cfrac{46}{5}-\cfrac{86}{25}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is 25}\implies \cfrac{(5\cdot 46)~~-~~(1\cdot 86)}{25}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{230~-~86}{25}\implies \cfrac{144}{25}\implies 5\frac{19}{25}

At the end of 8 years, Anna paid $400 interest for a loan. If the simple annual interest rate was 4%, how much did Anna borrow?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

$1,250

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the answer using the following formula:

i = Prn

i= interest= $400

P= principal

r= rate of interest=0.04

t= time periods= 8

You can replace the values you have in the formula and then, isolate P:

400= P*0.04*8

400=P*0.32

P= 400/0.32

P= 1250

According to this, the answer is that Anna borrowed $1,250.
