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
Answer:
A. Starting at the origin, go 3.5 spaces to the right and then 4 spaces up.
Step-by-step explanation:
if you were to plot this then the point would be (3.5,4) instead of (4,3.5)
Answer:
36.25 and 307.18
Step-by-step explanation:
both are 100 times greater than 20.342.
If x<0 and y>0, then the sign of the real number x-y/xy would be positive. <span>If x is negative and y is positive then x-y is negative and xy is negative. A negative number divided by another negative number would be positive. Hope this answers the question.</span>
P / 100 = 25 / 75;
p = 2500 / 75 ;
p = 33.33;
p% = 33.33%
