5 1/2 - 3 3/4 ______

2 answers:

So first you want to convert both to have the same denominator.

5 1/2 - 3 3/4

To:

5 2/4 - 3 3/4

Now, to make it easier for me, I would convert both to an improper fraction.

5 2/4 -> 22/4

3 3/4 -> 15/4

So now you can just do,

22/4 - 15/4,

which is just 7/4.

This in mixed number form is 1 3/4.

Find the fifth term of the geometric sequence whose first term is 81 and whose common ratio is 1/3.(1 point)13

Ludmilka [50]

$n^{th}\textit{ term of a geometric sequence} \\\\ a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}\qquad \begin{cases} a_n=n^{th}\ term\\ n=\stackrel{\textit{term position}}{5}\\ a_1=\stackrel{\textit{first term}}{81}\\ r=\stackrel{\textit{common ratio}}{\frac{1}{3}} \end{cases}\implies a_5=81\left( \cfrac{1}{3} \right)^{5-1} \\\\\\ a_5=81\left( \cfrac{1}{3} \right)^4\implies a_5=81\cdot \cfrac{1}{81}\implies a=1$
