Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = 31

Discussion:

angle A + angle C + angle B = 180 (180 degrees in a triangle)

angle A + 57 + 61 = 180 => (substitution)

angle A + 118 = 180 =>

angle A = 180 -118 = 62

By the congruence statement, angle A = angle D = 2x so

62 = 2x =>

x = 31

Thank you,

MrB

The 13th term of a geometric sequence is 16, 384 and the first term is 4. What is the common ratio?

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

In your geometric sequence, a₁ = 4 and a₁₃ = 16 384.

$\begin{array}{rcl}16384 & = & 4r^{(13 - 1)}}\\16384 & = & 4r^{12}\\4096 & = & r^{12}\\3.6124 & = & 12 \log r\\0.30102 & = & \log r\\r & = & 10^{0.30102}\\ & = & \mathbf{2}\\\end{array}\\\text{The common ratio is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{2}}$}$

Check:

$\begin{array}{rcl}16384 & = & 4(2)^{12}\\16384 & = & 4(4096)\\16384 & = & 16384\\\end{array}$

It checks.
