Answer.
Always

Explanation
In a geometric sequence, the ratio of consecutive term is always a constant number. This means that if a, b, c, d, …. is a geometric sequence, then;
b/a=c/b=d/c……
So, to complete the statement above,
In a geometric sequence, the ratio of consecutive term is ALWAYS constant.

A fair coin is flipped 10 times and the results are observed. The coin lands heads-side up 4 times.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The experimental probability of the coin landing tails-side up is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of it landing heads up is 4/10. You can use 4/10 to find how many times it landed on tails.

10/10 - 4/10= 6/10 now convert 6/10 into a percentage, 60/100=60%

Which of the following are examples of a geometric sequence? Select any and all that apply: may be more than one correct answer.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

( 1 , -2 , 4 , -8 , 16 , ... )

( 9 , 3 , 1 , 1/3 , 1/9 , ... )

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence has a common ratio in consecutive terms,

In sequence,

$1, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{24},\frac{1}{120}.....$

$\frac{1/2}{1}\neq \frac{1/6}{1/2}\neq \frac{1/24}{1/6}\neq \frac{1/120}{1/24}...$

i.e.

$1, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{24},\frac{1}{120}.....$ is not a Geometric sequence,

1 , -2 , 3 , -4 , 5 , ...

$\frac{-2}{1}\neq \frac{3}{-2}\neq \frac{-4}{3}\neq \frac{5}{-4}...$

i.e. 1 , -2 , 3 , -4 , 5 , ... is not a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

1 , -2 , 4 , -8 , 16 , ...

$\frac{-2}{1}=\frac{4}{-2}= \frac{-8}{4}= \frac{16}{-8}...$

i.e. 1 , -2 , 4 , -8 , 16 , .... is a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

0 , 1 , 0 , -1 , 0 , .....

$\frac{1}{0}\neq \frac{0}{1}\neq \frac{-1}{0}\neq \frac{0}{-1}...$

i.e. 0 , 1 , 0 , -1 , 0 , .....is not a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

9 , 3 , 1 , 1/3 , 1/9 , ...

$\frac{3}{9}=\frac{1}{3}= \frac{1/3}{1}= \frac{1/9}{1/3}...$

i.e. 9 , 3 , 1 , 1/3 , 1/9 , ... is a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , ...

$\frac{3}{1}\neq \frac{5}{3}\neq \frac{7}{5}\neq \frac{9}{7}...$

i.e. 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , ... is not a Geometric sequence

-4(2x-3)>-28 please i need this result

Len [333]

-4 (2x - 3) > -28

Divide by -4 on both sides. Since we're dividing by a negative, we need to switch the sign.

2x - 3 < 7

Add 3 to both sides

2x < 10

Divide by 2 on both sides

x < 5

Find the equation of the line specified. The line passes through the points ( 5, 2) and ( 6, 4) a. y = 2x - 8 c. y = 2x + 12 b.

o-na [289]

( 5, 2) and ( 6, 4)
slope m = (4-2)/(6-5) = 2

y = mx + b
b = y - mx
b = 2 - 2(5)
b = 2 - 10
b = -8

so now you have slope m = 2 and y intercept b = -8

equation
y = 2x - 8

answer
a. y = 2x - 8
