The first term of a geometric sequence is 32, and the 5th term of the sequence is 818 .

sammy [17]

Answer:

$32,24,18,\frac{27}{2} ,\frac{81}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y , and z be the numbers.

Then the geometric sequence is $32,x,y,z,\frac{81}{8}$

Recall that term of a geometric sequence are generally in the form:

$a,ar,ar^2,ar^3,ar^4$

This implies that:

a=32 and $ar^4=\frac{81}{8}$

Substitute a=32 and solve for r.

$32r^3=\frac{81}{8}$

$r^4=\frac{81}{256}$

Take the fourth root to get:

$r=\sqrt[4]{\frac{81}{256} }$

$r=\frac{3}{4}$

Therefore $x=32*\frac{3}{4} =24$

$y=24*\frac{3}{4} =18$

$z=18*\frac{3}{4} =\frac{27}{2}$

Answer:

$29,005.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Cn = Co * (1 + i)^n

Cn = 104,986.99(1+.05/1)^(1*5)

Cn = 104,986.99(1+.05)^5

Cn = 104,986.99(105)^5

Cn = 104,986.99(1.2763)

Cn = 133,992.96, total money at end

133,992.96-104,986.99= $29,005.97, interest accumulated
