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

Which answer choice is correct ?
alexdok [17]

Answer: B, p=q

Step-by-step explanation:

In every triangle, the sum of the angles will equal 180 degrees.

If you add the angles given in each triangle, both with equal 100 degrees.

Because of this, you do 180 degrees - 100 degrees to find that each angle, p and q, are both 80 degrees.

A and B are complementary angles. If mA=(x+8)° and mB =(8x+1),<br> find the measure of A
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

\angle A=17\textdegree

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that A and B are complementary angles. So, they must add up to 90°. As an equation:

\angle A+\angle B=90

Since we know their equations, substitute:

(x+8)+(8x+1)=90

Solve for x. Combine like terms on the left:

9x+9=90

Subtract 9 from both sides:

9x=81

Divide both sides by 9:

x=9

So, the value of x is 9.

We want to find A. So, let's use the equation for A:

\angle A=x+8

Substitute 9 for x:

\angle A=9+8

Add:

\angle A=17\textdegree

So, the measure of A is 17°.
