Answer:

Correct answer:  q = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

3, 12, 48, 192, .....

First term       b₁ = 3

Second term b₂ = 12

Third term     b₃ = 48

Fourth term   b₄ = 192

Common ratio or quotient is:

q = b₂ / b₁ = b₃ / b₂ = 12 / 3 = 48 / 12 = 4

q = 4

Find the indicated term of the given arithmetic sequence. a1=45, d= -3, n=10
klasskru [66]

In this sequence, we're given the first term, which is 45.

The difference between each term is -3, which means 3 will be subtracted in each term.

We're asked to find the value of the tenth term, and we can do so by using this formula:

a(n) = a(1) + d(n - 1)

Replace values.

a(10) = 45 + -3(9)

a(10) = 18

<h3>The value of the tenth term is 18.</h3>
