Find the 10th term of geometric sequence 3,15,75,375
Bess [88]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the next term is a constant times the previous term. This constant is determined by dividing the second term by the first, here giving 5. The remaining terms are checked to see that each is 5 times the previous. 75 is 15×5, 375 is 75×5.


Alternately, the nth term is first term times k^(n-1).

Here, that's 3×5^(10-1), 3×5^9=5859375

A 20-gallon salt-water solution contains 15% pure salt. How much pure water should be added to it to produce a 10% solution?
Elanso [62]

15% of 20 gal = 0.15 * 20 gal = 3 gal, so the solution contains 3 gal of salt.

If we add <em>x</em> gal of water to the solution, we end up with (20 + <em>x</em>) gal of solution. We want the new mixture to have a concentration of 10%, or

10% of (20 + <em>x</em>) gal = 0.1 * (20 + <em>x</em>) gal = 2 + 0.1<em>x</em> gal

of salt.

The amount of salt in the tank hasn't changed. Solve for <em>x </em>:

2 + 0.1<em>x</em> = 3

0.1<em>x</em> = 1

<em>x</em> = 10 gal
