Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of n terms of a geometric series with first term a1 and common ratio r is given by ...

  Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)

for r=5 and n=6, this becomes ...

  15624 = a1·(5^6 -1)/(5 -1) = a1·(15624/4)

Then we have ...

  1 = a1/4 . . . . . divide by 15624

  4 = a1 . . . . . . multiply by 4

The first term of the series is 4.

Find the 89th term of 25,35,45
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The 89th term would be 895.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a pattern of adding 10 each time. Notice that the 5 at the end doesn't change and that the first number continues (i.e. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). All you have to do is add an 89 in front of the 5 and that is your answer, 895.

Solve for a r=x(a+b)<br><br><br> Solve for x x/2=-7
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

a = (r/x) -b

x = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

r=x(a+b)

Divide each side by x

r/x = a+b

Subtract b

r/x  -b = a

x/2=-7

Multiply each side by 2

x/2*2 = -7*2

x = -14
