ok ... in this situation... we need to find the area of the rectangle first as it is equal to the area of square .

so .... area of rectangle = l×b= 16×4

= 64 ∴area of square = 64

area of square = s×s

∴to find one side of the square ... we need to find the root of 64 = 8

∴one side = 8

now : perimeter of square : 4 × sides = 4 × 8 = 32 ║

Identify the 12th term of a geometric sequence where a1 = 8 and a6 = −8,192.

vodka [1.7K]

Geometric sequence
$a_{n}=a_{1}*r^{n-1}$
r=common ratio
a1=first term
find r

a1=8
a6=-8192
$-8192=a_{6}=8*r^{6-1}$
$-8192=8*r^{5}$
divide both sides by 8
$-1024=8*r^{5}$
take 5th root of both sides
-4=r
sub
$a_{12}=8*(-4)^{12-1}$
$a_{12}=8*(-4)^{11}$
$a_{12}=8*-4194304$
$a_{12}=-33554432$
