Actually, you have to find four missed terms of geometrical sequence. Denote

a_1=25,\\ a_6=800

and r - ratio, then

a_2=a_1\cdot r=25r,\\a_3=a_1\cdot r^2=25r^2,\\a_4=a_1\cdot r^3=25r^3,\\a_5=a_1\cdot r^4=25r^4,\\a_6=a_1\cdot r^5=25r^5.

Since a_6=800, you have that 800=25r^5, then

r^5=\dfrac{800}{25} =32,\\r=2.

Now substitude r=2 in each of unknown 4 terms:

a_2=25\cdot 2=50,\\a_3=25\cdot 2^2=100,\\a_4=25\cdot 2^3=200,\\a_5=25\cdot 2^4=400.

Answer: four geometric means between 25 and 800 are 50, 100, 200, 400.

A video game system and several games are sold for $ 648. The cost of the games is 3 times as much as the cost of the system. Fi
podryga [215]

First set up the equation.

x + 3x = 648

Then solve for x.

4x = 648

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 162.  So the answer for the system would be $162 and the price for the games would be $486.  Add the two up to check your work and you will get $648.  Hope this helped!

The sum of 3 consecutive odd numbers is 51. What is the second number in this sequence?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Assume the second number is x, then the other two are x - 2, x + 2

So x-2 + x + x + 2 = 51

-> 3x = 51

-> x = 17
