taurus [48]

On Monday, Nora read ¼ of the book, therefore she is left with ¾ of the original book.

Then on Tuesday, she read 2/5 of what was left on Monday therefore she is left with 3/5 of ¾ of the original book. This is equal to:

(3/5) (3/4) = 9/20

<span>She still needs to read 9/20 of the book or 0.45 or 45% of the book.</span>

What is the value of a1 for a geometric sequence with a4=40 and a6=160?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of a geometric series is:

a_n = a₁ (r)^(n-1)

where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Here, we have:

40 = a₁ (r)^(4-1)

160 = a₁ (r)^(6-1)

40 = a₁ (r)^3

160 = a₁ (r)^5

If we divide the two equations:

4 = r^2

r = 2

Now substitute into either equation to find a₁:

40 = a₁ (2)^3

40 = 8 a₁

a₁ = 5
