Determine the explicit formula of the following sequence -3,-18,-108...

Mathematics
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a_{n} = - 3(6)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = - 18 ÷ - 3 = - 108 ÷ - 18 = 6

This indicates the sequence is geometric with n th term ( explicit formula )

a_{n} = a(r)^{n-1}

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a = - 3 and r = 6, thus

a_{n} = - 3(6)^{n-1}

Anarel [89]

The unknown number . . . . .  (z)

The sum of the unknown number and 22 . . . . .  (z + 22)

The sum of the unknown number and 22
divided by the same unknown number . . . . . . .  (z + 22) / z

You said that quotient is 12.              (z + 22) / z  =  12

Multiply each side by 'z' :                  (z + 22)       =  12 z

Subtract 'z' from each side:                      22        =  11 z

Divide each side by  11 :                           2         =      z .

Determine the area. Show your work. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you have to find the area of the square then the area of the triangle, and add them together.

To find the are of a square you multiply the base by the height.

Example: 6 × 6 = 36

To find the area of a triangle you multiply the base by the height and divide it by 2.

Example: 6 × 6 = 36

36 ÷ 2 = 18

Now we add both areas together.

Example: 36 + 18 = 54

Find X in the figure below.
Hitman42 [59]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

x = 3

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The product of the lengths of segments from the intersection point to the circle is the same for both secants.

... 1×6 = 2×x

... 6/2 = x = 3 . . . . . divide by 2

_____

<em>Comment on secant geometry</em>

Interestingly, this relation is true whether the point of intersection of the secants is inside the circle or outside.

When it is outside, the product is of the distance to the near intersection with the circle and the distance to the far intersection with the circle.
