This is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 2

an = a1 * r^(n - 1)
n = term to find = 21
a1 = first term = 0.05
r = common ratio = 2
now we sub
a21 = 0.05 * 2^(21 - 1)
a21 = 0.05 * 2^20
a21 = 0.05 * 1048576
a21 = 52428.80 <==== after working 21 days

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple matter of using Pythagoras. The hypotenuse is the ladder, and one of the legs is the wall, and we have to figure out the value of the other leg.

The Pythagorean formuda is (hypotenuse = a): a² + b² = c² (b and c are the other sides)

applying the values: a = 5 and b or c is 3 (I'll put b = 3)

5² = 3² + c²

25 = 9 + c²

25 - 9 = c²

16 = c²

√16 = c

4 = c

c = 4
