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

Mariana [72]

Answer:

I´ll say 75% because basically well..lets say that there are 400 animals then you divide them all to 100 so there is 100 animals in each box and lets say 100 animals = 25% so we add another animal and that gives us 50% then another and 75% so you get wear im going with this right?

Step-by-step explanation:

But the answer is 75%

Which function is the inverse of function of f if the domain of f is x &gt; 0?<br> f(x) = x^2 + 6
levacccp [35]

Answer:

f⁻¹(x) = ± √x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² + 6

y = x² + 6

x = y² + 6 ... replace x and y

solve y: y² = x - 6

y (f⁻¹(x)) = ± √x-6
