Find an explicit formula for the geometric sequence −1,−7,−49,−343,...-1\,,-7\,,-49\,,-343,... −1,−7,−49,−343
umka21 [38]
So we see it times 7 each time
starting with -1
geometric
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
a1=first term
r=common ratio
first term is -1
r=7
is the formula
also can look like this:
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x = log5 / ( (1/2)log6 + log5)
approximately 0.642
Discussion:
Take the logarithm of both sides ( to "pull" the exponents down so we can work on them!)
6^(x/2)) = 5^(1-x)
log ( 6^(x/2)) = log (5^(1-x)) => using log (a^n) = n log a
(x/2) log6 = (1-x) log5 => add x log5 to both sides
(x/2) log6 + xlog5 = log5 - xlog5 + xlog5 =>
(x/2) log6 + xlog5 = log5 => factor x from the lhs
x ( (1/2) log6 + log5) = log5 =>
x = log5 / ( (1/2)log6 + log5)
The above can be further simplified but that's as far as I want to take it.The value of x is approx equal to 0.642
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
34 I think almost positive
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we must indicate the factors of the following expression:
To factor we must find two numbers that when multiplied result in -20 and when added, result in -12.
There are no two numbers that meet this condition. Thus, the expression is not factorizable with rational numbers.
Answer:
The expression is not factorizable with rational numbers.
