Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) since the sixth term is 3 and the fifth term 24, the common ratio would be 3/24 = 1/8

The formula for finding the nth term of a geometric sequence is

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

If t6 = 3,r = 1/8, then

3 = a × 1/8^(6 - 1) = a × (1/8)^5

a = 3/(0.125)^5 = 98304

The first term is 98304.

Second term is 98304 × 1/8 = 12288

Third term is 12288 × 1/8 = 1536

Third term is 1536 × 1/8 = 192

2) t1 = 4

t2 = - 3t(2- 1) = - 3t1 = - 3 × 4 = - 12

t3 = - 3t(3- 1) = - 3t2 = - 3 × - 12 = 36

t4 = - 3t(4- 1) = - 3t3 = - 3 × 36 = - 108

3) let the numbers be t2,t3 and t4

The sequence becomes

1/2, t2,t3, t4,8

The formula for finding the nth term of a geometric sequence is

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

8 = 1/2 × r^(5 - 1)

8 = 1/2 × r^4

16 = r^4

2^4 = r^4

r = 2

t2 = 1/2 × 2 = 1

t3 = 1 × 2 = 2

t4 = 2 × 2 = 4

Equivalent/Equal ratios<em> - Definition of Equivalent Ratio A ratio can be represented as a fraction. The concept of an equivalent ratio is similar to the concept of equivalent fractions. A ratio that we get either by multiplying or dividing by the same number, other than zero, to the antecedent and the consequent of a ratio is called an equivalent ratio.</em>

laura decides to walk to her job. she walks 1 1\2 miles in 3\5 hour. what is laura's walking rate? laura's job is 4 1\2 miles aw
Nuetrik [128]
To find the rate in miles per hour, divide the miles by the hours.

(1 1/2 miles)/(3/5 hour) =

= 3/2 miles * (5/3 hour)

= 5/2 mph

= 2 1/2 mph

Her walking rate is 2 1/2 mph.

(4 1/2 miles) / ( 2 1/2 mph) =

= 9/2 miles / (5/2 mph)

= 9/2 * 2/5 hours

= 9/5 hours

= 1 4/5 hours

From 9:00 a.m. to 11 a.m., she has 2 hours, but she only needs 1 4/5 hours to walk, so she will make it to work on time.
