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

What are the roots of the polynomial equation x^2+8x-48=0
____ [38]

<span> Given polynomial x^2+8x-48 = 0</span>

<span>x^2+12x-4x-48 = 0</span>

<span>x(x+12)-4(x+12) = 0</span>

<span>(x+12)(x-4) = 0</span>

<span>x+12 = 0</span>

Subtract 12 from each side.

<span>x+12-12 = 0-12</span>

<span>x = -12</span>

<span>and x-4 = 0</span>

Add 4 to each side.

<span>x-4+4 = 0+4</span>

<span>x = 4</span>

<span>Roots are -12,4.</span>
