Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is
=
where a is the first term and r the common ratio
Here r = 5 and a has to be found, thus
=
, so
= 15624
Multiply both sides by 4
15624a = 62496 ( divide both sides by 15624
a = 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Point of intersections of the graph with x-axis are not clear.
Let these points are x = -a, -b and c
Therefore, function representing the graph will be,
f(x) = p(x + a)(x + b)(x - c)
Since, this graph crosses y-axis at (0, -6),
f(0) = p(0 + a)(0 + b)(0 - c) = -6
-pabc = -6
p =
Therefore, equation of the given function will be,
f(x) =
