Mathematics

Answer:

The next two terms after a1 is

-6 and then 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence means your pattern for the terms is multiplication by the same number.

So a1 is the first term and r is your common ratio.

The common ratio is what you are multiplying by each time to figure out the next term.

So the geometric sequence goes like this:

a1 ,  a1*r , (a1*r)*r or a1*r^2 , a1*r^3 ,....

So anyways you have

first term a1=2

second term a2=2(-3)=-6

third term a3=-6(-3)=18

And so on...

In example 4, the volume of the beach ball is 17,000 cubic inches. Find the radius to the nearest inch. Use 3.14 for pi
blagie [28]

Volume of a sphere formula is: V=4 /3 πr^3

You know v=17000 and pi=3.14

17 000 = 4/3 x 3.14 x r^3

(divide 17 000 by 4/3 x 3.14 ) --> r^3 = 4060.51 (2dp)

(cube root is to get just r) r = 15.95 inches (2dp)

There 15 inches to the nearest inch.

Hope this is correct! :D

A bookstore manager marks down the price of older hardcover books, which originally sell for b dollars, by 42%. Part 1 out of 4
BigorU [14]

Answer:

0.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the old hardcover books was sold for b dollars. But the manager markdown the hardcover books by 42%.

The expression of the markdown using a decimal can be represented below.

Recall the markdown is 42 %. If you want to convert from percentage to a decimal, you have to move the decimal point two places to the left . The percentage sign is removed at this stage and the value is represent in decimal.  Or you can just divide the percentage value by 100.

In our case the percentage value can be solved as 42/100 = 0.42 in decimal or by just simply moving the decimal points two places to the left which is 0.42.

Definition of Variable and Constant with examples!<br>Spam free answers required!​
ra1l [238]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{variable}}}}

Variable is a symbol that represents a quantity in a mathematical expression, as used in many sciences. Variable (research), a logical set of attributes. Variable star, a type of astronomical star.

\large\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{constant}}}}

A constant, sometimes also called a "mathematical constant," is any well-defined real number which is significantly interesting in some way. A function, equation, etc., is said to "be constant" (or be a constant function) if it always assumes the same value independent of how its parameters are varied.
