Suppose the first term of a geometric sequence is 3 and the fourth term is 192. What is the common ratio of the sequence? Write

an equation that can be used to find the nth term of the sequence. What is the sixth term of the sequence?

An=A1 r ^(n-1)
192= 3 r ^(4-1)
192 = 3 r^3
64 = r^3
r = 4

equation:
An=3 (4)^(n-1)

6th term:
An= 3 (4)^(6-1)
An= 3072

I think this is right :)

annual sales for a company are $149,999 and are increasing at a rate of 6% per year. write an exponential growth function to mod
elixir [45]

Answer:

  • S(t) = 149999(1.06)^t
  • $225543

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial value is $149999
  • Increase rate is 6% per year = 1.06 times

<u>The model of the growth is:</u>

  • S(t) = 149999(1.06)^t, where S- amount of annual sales, t- time in years, 1.06- growth rate per year

<u>Annual sales after 7 years:</u>

  • S(7) = 149999(1.06)^7 = $225543

If the side length of a square pyramid is triple and the slant height is divided by 5 what would be the formula to find the modi
valentina_108 [34]
If the original side length is "s" and the original slant height is "h", the original surface area is
.. S = (base area) +(lateral area)
.. S = s² +(1/2)*(4s)*h
.. S = s(s +2h)

Now, if we make these replacements: s ⇒ 3s, h ⇒ h/5, we have
.. S' = (3s)(3s +2h/5)
.. S' = 9s² +(6/5)s*h . . . . . . . the formula for the modified area (in terms of original dimensions)

_____
Of course, in terms of the modified dimensions, the formula is the same:
.. S' = s'(s' +2h')

Mei has 8 jars of soup. Each jar contains 300 milliliters of soup. What is the smallest pot Mei can use to heat all the soup.[PL
Kobotan [32]

Answer: A pot of 2400ml

Step-by-step explanation: Ok, mei has 8 jars, and each jar has 300ml of soup, so the total amount of soup is 8 times 300ml

N = 8*300ml = 2400ml

So the smallest pot that mei can use to heat the soup is a pot that has exactly that volume. 2400ml, (discarding the fact that the volume of the soup will change as it is heated up)

An accident at an oil drilling platform is causing a circular oil slick. The slick is 0.07 foot thick, and when the radius of th
ololo11 [35]

Answer:43.54 ft^3/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Thickness of oil slick=0.07 foot

radius of slick=110 ft

\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.9 ft/s

Let V be the volume of oil slick

so, V=0.07\pi \cdot r^2

rate of oil flowing is

\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.07\times 2\pi \cdot r\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.07\times 2\pi \times 110\times 0.9=43.54 ft^3/min
