What is the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 2, -4, 8, -16, ​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marianna [84]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the answer is f(x) = n*(-2)

ratio is the wrong word to use, it is for contolled variation in probability. a sequence is controlled by what is known as a function - f(x) is the symbol for a function

Step-by-step explanation:

the following number of the previous one in the sequence is derived by the function f(x)=n*(-2)

2 x -2 = -4 (positive x negative = negative)

-4 × -2 = 8 (negative x negative = positive)

8 x -2 = -16 (positive x negative = negative)

so in the sequence, the trend of -,+ double will go on

Answer:

1. distance = sqrt( (7-7)^2+(2- -8)^2) = 10

2.  check out desk (0,0 ) => distance = sqrt( (0- -9)^2+(0-0)^2) = 9

3. last corner ( -3, 4)

4. area = sqrt( (-10- -10)^2+(10-4)^2) x sqrt( (-3- -10)^2+(10-10)^2) = 6x7 =42

5. check desk (0,0), south direction = negative y axis => P_beginning (0,-20), P_end (0,-(20+25)) = (0,-45)

6. A(-2,-1) and B(4,-1) lie in y =-1. AB = sqrt( (-2- 4)^2+(-1- -1)^2) =6

=> area = 3.6x6 =21.6

=> peri = 2x(3.6+6) = 19.2

7. A(-5,4) and B(2,4), AB =  sqrt( (-5- 2)^2+(4- -4)^2) = 7 => AB is base

=> p = peri = 7+ 8.3x2 = 23.6

=> area = sqrt[px(p-7)x(p-8.3)x(p-8.3)]

             =sqrt[23.6x(23.6-7)x(23.6-8.3)x(23.6-8.3)] = 302.8

Juan bought 4 pounds of chocolate
Andru [333]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations.  The 2 equations are:

4c + 2p = 16

2c + 3p = 12

Let's get rid of the p's first.  Do this by multiplying the first equation by -3 and the second equation by 2 to get a new system that looks like this:

-12x - 6p = -48

 4c + 6p =  24

Now add to get

-8c = -24 and

c = 3

That means that chocolate is $3 per pound.  Now sub that back in to either one of the original equations to get the price for peanuts:

4(3) + 2p = 16 and

12 + 2p = 16 and

2p = 4 so

p = 2

The price for peanuts is $2 per pound.

What is the area of a sector with a central angle of 108 degrees and a diameter of 21.2 cm?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

105.84\ cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the circle

The area of the circle is

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=21.2/2=10.6\ cm ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

A=\pi (10.6)^{2}

A=112.36\pi\ cm^2

step 2

Find the area of a sector

Remember that

The area of the circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

using proportion

Find out the area of a sector with a central angle of 108 degrees

\frac{112.36\pi}{360^o}=\frac{x}{108^o}\\\\x=112.36\pi(108)/360\\\\x=33.708\pi\ cm^2

assume

\pi=3.14

substitute

33.708(3.14)=105.84\ cm^2
