Answer:

16 responses

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

a_n=r^{n-1}

where

a_n----> n^{th} term of the sequence

r ---> is the common ratio

a ---> the first term of the sequence

a=50\\r=100\%-10\%=90\%=90/100=0.90

substitute

a_n=50(0.90)^{n-1}

For n=12

substitute

a_n=50(0.90)^{12-1}=16

Illusion [34]

the​ line-of-sight distance from the television camera to the base of the stadium​ is 1449.28 m .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

A blimp provides aerial television views of a baseball game. The television camera sights the stadium at a 12° angle of depression. The altitude of the blimp is 300 m. We need to find What is the​ line-of-sight distance from the television camera to the base of the stadium​ . Let's find out:

According to question , given scenario is in a right angle triangle where

Perpendicular=300\\Hypotenuse=?\\x=12 , where x is angle of depression.

We know that sinx= \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}

⇒  sin12= \frac{300}{Hypotenuse}

⇒  Hypotenuse= \frac{300}{Sin12}

⇒  Hypotenuse= \frac{300}{0.207}

⇒  Hypotenuse= 1449.28m

Therefore , the​ line-of-sight distance from the television camera to the base of the stadium​ is 1449.28 m .
