Option B:

The 12th term is 354294.

Solution:

Given data:

a_4=54 and a_7=1458

To find a_{12}:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence.

The general term of the geometric sequence is a_n=a_1\ r^{n-1}.

If we have 2 terms of a geometric sequence a_n and a_k (n > K),

then we can write the general term as a_n=a_k\ r^{n-k}.

Here we have a_4=54 and a_7=1458.

So, n = 7 and k = 4 ( 7 > 4)

a_7=a_4\ .\ r^{7-4}

1458=54\ . \  r^3

This can be written as

$r^3=\frac{1458}{54}

$r^3=27

$r^3=3^3

Taking cube root on both sides of the equation, we get

r = 3

a_{12}=a_7\ .\ r^{12-7}

     =1458\ .\ r^5

     =1458\ .\ 3^5

a_{12}=354294

Hence the 12th term of the geometric sequence is 354294.

Kevin needs to replace four rectangular
LekaFEV [45]
To find the measure of a singular window we need to find the area which is length times width. so that's 2.75(4) which is 11 square feet. However, Kevin has four windows which means he needs 11(4) square feet for all the windows. Which would mean Kevin needs 44 sqaure feet.
