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⁾

3 1/3 divided by 1 1/4 =
lora16 [44]

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/3 = 10/3

1 1/4 = 5/4

Remember when dividing by a fraction you can also multiply by its reciprocal meaning flip the numerator and denominator.

so

(3 1/3) / (1 1/4) = (10/3) / (5/4) = (10/3) x (4/5) which is the same as (3/10) x (5/4)

= (3 x 5) / (10 x 4) = 15 / 40

the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 5 so divide the  numerator and denominator by 5

15 / 40 = 3/8
