Answer:

The scale factor for the dilation is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Rectangle ABCD is dilated to form the rectangle A'B'C'D'.

<em>To find the scale factor, we will find the ratio of the lengths of the rectangle.</em>

We see that,

A= (1,5) and B= (4,5). So, the length of side AB = 4-1 = 3

A'= (3,15) and B'= (12,15). So, the length of side A'B' = 12-3 = 9

So, the ratio of the sides AB : A'B' = 3 : 9 = 1 : 3.

Hence, we get that,

<em>Length of side A'B' is 3 times the length of side AB.</em>

This relation can be verified for other sides also.

Thus, the scale factor for the dilation is 3.

Write the explicit formula for the sequence below and use it to find the 16th term:

mario62 [17]

Given:

The sequence is:

$6, -24, 96, -384,...$

To find:

The explicit formula for the given sequence and then find the 16th term.

Solution:

We have,

$6, -24, 96, -384,...$

The ratio between two consecutive terms are:

$\dfrac{-24}{6}=-4$

$\dfrac{96}{-24}=-4$

$\dfrac{-384}{96}=-4$

The given sequence has a common ratio. So, the given sequence is a geometric sequence with first term 6 and common ratio $-4$ .

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is:

$a_n=ar^{n-1}$

Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Putting $a=6, r=-4$ in the above formula, we get

$a_n=6(-4)^{n-1}$

We need to find the 16th term. So, put $n=16$ in the above formula.

$a_n=6(-4)^{16-1}$

$a_n=6(-4)^{15}$

$a_n=6(-1073741824)$

$a_n=-6442450944$

Therefore, the explicit formula for the given sequence is $a_n=6(-4)^{n-1}$ and 16th term of the given sequence is $-6.442450944$ .

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

6,7,8,9

Step-by-step explanation:

> means Greater than

< means Less than

Thus,

Any number that greater than 10 would make this inequality true..

Some possible values for x can be:

6,7,8,9,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18 and so on
