A,ar,ar².... is the gp

now 2/15/1/5 = 2/3

and 4/45/2/15 = 2/3

therefore 2/3 is the common ratio

This is already answered by: <span>Cerverusdante</span>

So have the sequence: 1/5,2/15,4/45,8/135,16/405To check if the sequence is geometric, we are going to find its common ratio; to do it we are going to use the formula: r=(an)/(an-1)where  r is the common ratio  an is the current term in the sequence an is the previous term in the sequenceIn other words we are going to divide the current term by the previous term a few times, and we will to check if that ratio is the same:
For an= 2/15 and an-1=1/5 :r=(2/15)/(1/5)r=2/3
For an=4/45 and an-1=2/15:
r=(4/45)/(2/15)
r=2/3


For  an=8/135 and an-1=4/45 :r=(8/135)/(4/45)
r=2/3
As you can see, we have a common ratio!
We can conclude that our sequence is a geometric sequence and its common ratio is  2/3

140 tickets sold at the door

Step by Step Explanation:

x = tickets sold in advance
y = tickets sold at the door

We use the formula ax+by=c and a+b=c

x + y = 514
17x + 20y = 9158

y = 514 - x
17x + 20(514 - x)
17x + 10,280 - 20x = 9,158
-3x + 10,280 = 9,158
-3x = -11222
x = 374

This is for tickets sold in advance so we need to find y

374 + y = 514
y = 140

140 tickets were sold at the door

Calcula el volumen en metros cúbicos de una piscina que tiene 8 m de largo 2 m de ancho y 1.5 m de profundidad
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

V = 24 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question says that, 'Calculate the volume in cubic meters of a pool that is 8 m long, 2 m wide and 1.5 m deep'.

A pool is in the shape of a cubiod. The volume of the cuboid is given by :

V = lbh

Where

l is length, b is width and h is height

Put all the values,

V = 8 × 2 × 1.5

= 24 m³

So, the volume of the pool is equal to 24 m³.
