Answer:

Correct answer:  Third answer  aₙ = -5 · 2⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-5, -10, -20, -40,.....

First term       a₁ = -5

Second term a₂ = -10

Third term     a₃ = -20

Common ratio or quotient

q = a₂ / a₁ = a₃ / a₂ = -10 / -5 = -20 / -10 = 2

q = 2

First term  a₁

Second term a₂ = a₁ · q = a₂ · q²

Third term     a₃ = a₂ · q = a₁ · q³

.....................................................

n-th term aₙ = a₁ · q⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

aₙ = -5 · 2⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

April shoots an arrow upward into the air at a speed of 32 feet per second from a platform that is 11 feet high. The height of t
dusya [7]

Answer:

27 ft

the maximum height of the​ arrow is 27 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The height of the arrow is given by the function;

h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 11

Maximum height is at point when dh(t)/dt = 0.

Differentiating h(t), we have;

dh/dt = -32t + 32 = 0

Solving for t;

-32t = -32

t = -32/-32 = 1

t = 1 (time at maximum height is t = 1)

Substituting t=1 into h(t), to determine the value of maximum height;

h(max)= -16(1^2) + 32(1) + 11

h(max) = 27 ft

the maximum height of the​ arrow is 27 ft.
