Answer:

C. 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term = a1 r^(n-1) where a1 = first term and r = common ratio.

Here a1 = 2 and common ratio r = 4/2 = 2.

6th term = 2(2)^(6-1)

= 2 * 2^5

= 2*32

= 64.

Answer:

C 64

Step-by-step explanation:

We are multiplying by 2 each time

1st term is 2

2*2 =4

2nd term is 4

4*2 =8

3rd term is 8

8*2 =16

4th term is 16

16*2=32

5th term is 32

32*2=64

6th term is 64

Tara and Michelle are growing trees in their back yard. Tara's tree starts at a height of 10 feet, and grows 4 ft. a year. Miche

Answer:

To determine the exponential growth of Michelle's tree at 12 years, taking into account that it measures 7 feet and grows 14% annually, the following calculation must be performed:

X = 7 x (1 + 0.14) 12

X = 33.7

Thus, in 12 years, the height of Michelle's tree will be 33.7 feet. In turn, the tree of Tara will measure 58 feet at the same time.

The first time Michelle's tree surpasses Tara's will be at age 20, when Michelle's tree will measure 96.2 feet (X = 7 x (1 + 0.14) 20), while Tara's tree will measure 90 feet.

In order to subtract fractions, you need the denominators (bottom number) to be the same. $\frac{1}{2} * \frac{4}{4} = \frac{4}{8}$ . $\frac{5}{8} - \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{8}$
