Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's because any number multiplied by 0 equals 0. We could put any 2 numbers other than 2.7 and 2.8 yet still get both sides of the  equation = - 5.9 but the 2 sides are obviously not equal.

To do the test correctly he can use any number except 0.

Answer:

Sample Response: The coefficients of x are different in the expressions, but the constant values are the same. Zero times any value is zero, so both expressions will be equal to –5.9. If Ryan tried any other number, he would see that the expressions are not equivalent.

In a geometric sequence, A1 = 0.3 and r=3.Find A12, to the nearest integer
soldi70 [24.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

First terms of geometric sequence, a = 0.3

Common ratio, r = 3

It is required to find the 12th term of a GP. The formula of the nth term is given by :

T_n=ar^{n-1}

Here, n =12

So,

T_{12}=0.3\times 3^{12-1}\\\\T_{12}=0.3\times 3^{11}\\\\T_{12}=53144.1

or

T_{12}=53144

So, the 12th term of the GP is 53144.
