first of all we have the 5th term and 2nd term

T5=768 =a*r^4

T2=-12=a*r ^1

make a subject of formula in the both equations

that is a=T2/r and T5/r^4

a=12/r and a=768/r^4

when u equate them u will get

-64=r^3 so r=-4 then to find a that is 1st term

since second term is T2=a*r=12 an r=-4 then

a=12/-4 hence a=-3

It takes Emma 3/4 minutes to ride her bike a distance of 1/8 miles. What is Emma's average speed in miles per minute?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The answer is 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 miles in 3/4 minutes

then, that means in 1 minute ( 1 min = 3/4 * 4/3) Emma will ride a distance of (1/8)*(4/3)= (1*4)/(8*3)= 1/6.

The answer is 1/6 (in 1 min she will ride 1/6 miles).

Hope that useful for you.
