I hope it's clear enough.
Sequence: 5/2, 5/4, 5/8, 5/16
a8=?
a1=5/2
a2=5/4
a3=5/8
a4=5/16
a2/a1=(5/4)/(5/2)=(5/4)*(2/5)=(5*2)/(4*5)=2/4=1/2
a3/a2=(5/8)/(5/4)=(5/8)*(4/5)=(5*4)/(8*5)=4/8=1/2
a4/a3=(5/16)/(5/8)=(5/16)*(8/5)=(5*8)/(16*5)=8/16=1/2
Ratio: r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3→r=1/2
an=a1*r^(n-1)
a1=5/2, r=1/2
an=(5/2)*(1/2)^(n-1)
an=(5/2)*[1^(n-1)/2^(n-1)]
an=(5/2)*[1/2^(n-1)]
an=(5*1)/[2*2^(n-1)]
an=5/2^(1+n-1)
an=5/2^n
n=8→a8=5/2^8
a8=5/256
Answers:
The formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence is an=5/2^n
a8=5/256
The answer is A
A Parallelogram is a shape with 4 sides that has two pairs of parallel sides. The opposite sides must have equal length. This is accurate for this shape.
A Rectangle is a shape with 4 sides that has four right angles. This is accurate for this shape.
A rhombus is a shape with 4 sides of equal length. This is not accurate for this shape.
A square is a shape with 4 sides of equal length and four right angles. This is not accurate for this shape.
Answer:
53
Step-by-step explanation:
c=42+11
c=53
120/1500=x/100, x=8
So, you make 8% commision, meaning you now have to do this:
x/1300=8/100, so x=$104
