Mathematics
1 answer:
ozzi3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles add to 90 degrees since they are complementary

the ratio is 3:2

Multiply by x

3x:2x

Add them together and set equal to 90

3x+2x=90

5x=90

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 90/5

x = 18

The first angle is 3*18 = 54

The second angle is 2*18 = 36

Find an explicit rule for the nth term of the sequence.The second and fifth terms of a geometric sequence are 18 and 144, respec
vova2212 [387]

Given:

second term = 18

fifth term = 144

The nth term of a geometric sequence is:

\begin{gathered} a_n\text{ = ar}^{n-1} \\ Where\text{ a is the first term} \\ r\text{ is the common ratio} \end{gathered}

Hence, we have:

\begin{gathered} \text{ar}^{2-1}\text{ = 18} \\ ar\text{ = 18} \\  \\ ar^{5-1}=\text{ 144} \\ ar^4\text{ =144} \end{gathered}

Divide the expression for the fifth term by the expression for the second term:

\begin{gathered} \frac{ar^4}{ar}\text{ = }\frac{144}{18} \\ r^3\text{ = }\frac{144}{18} \\ r\text{ = 2} \end{gathered}

Substituting the value of r into any of the expression:

\begin{gathered} ar\text{ =  18} \\ a\text{ }\times\text{ 2 =  18} \\ Divide\text{ both sides by 2} \\ \frac{2a}{2}\text{ =}\frac{18}{2} \\ a\text{ = 9} \end{gathered}

Hence, the explicit rule for the sequence is:

a_n\text{ = 9\lparen2\rparen}^{n-1}
