Answer:

3¾

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence also known as geometric progression, can be said to be a sequence with a constant ratio between the terms.

Formula for geometric sequence:

a^n = a ( n-1 ) * r

Given:

First term, a1 = 30

ratio, r = ½

Required:

Find the fourth term

Where, the first term, a¹ = 30

Second term: a² = 30 * ½ = 15

Third term: a³ = 15 * ½ = 7.5

Fourth term: a⁴ = 7.5 * ½ = 3.75 = 3¾

Therfore the fourth term of the geometric sequence is 3¾

The 24 ounce one ig because if you divide 7.50 by 15 you’ll find out that it’s 0.50€ per ounce. You’re saving money and getting more for the 25 pack because it should originally be $12.50 but they are giving you 10 more ounces for just $11.75

7th term in geometric sequence an=2 5(n-1)
Soloha48 [4]
To find the 7th term, all you have to do is plug it in the equation.

First n would equal 7 because we are looking for the 7th term.

Now, let's plug everything we know into the equation.

a7 = 2+5 * (7-1)

= 2 + 5 * 6

= 2 + 30

= 32

In conclusion, the 7th term would equal 32.
