1. The sum of the three consecutive members of the geometric sequence is 13. The proportion of the third and the first member is

9. Determine the members of this sequence.
2. Between the numbers 4 and 60 we insert the two numbers so that the first three consecutive numbers are making geometric sequence and the last three consecutive numbers are an arithmetic sequence. What numbers did we use?

If a = first term and r = common ratio we have

a + ar + ar^2 = 13   and ar^2 / a = r^2 = 9

so r = 3

and a + 3a + 9a = 13 
so a = 1

so they are  1,3 and 9 

2.
in geometric series we have

4 , 4r ,4r^2 , 60

Arithmetic;
 4,  4r , 4r + d ,  4r + 2d

so we have the system of equations
4r + 2d = 60
4r^2 = 4r + d
From first equation
2r + d = 30 
so d = 30 - 2r 
Substitute for d in second equation:-
4r^2 - 4r - (30-2r) = 0
4r^2 - 2r - 30 =0

2r^2 - r - 15 = 0
(r - 3)(2r + 5) = 0
r  = 3 or -2.5
r must be positive so its = 3
and d = 30 - 2(3) = 24

and the numbers are 4*3 =  12 , 4*3^2 = 36

first 3  are  4 , 12 and 36  ( in geometric)
and last 3 are 12, 36 and 60  ( in arithmetic)

The 2 numbers we ause are 12 and 36.

The 17 students on the math team want to raise $483.62 to buy practice books they have already raised $218.25 of each students r
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Each stuydent must raise $15.61 to reach their goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Their goal is 483.62, but they already have 218.25 so we subtract,

483.62 - 218.25 = 265.37

Since there are 17 students and they raise the same amount we need to divide by the amount of students to find out how much money each of them need to raise to add up to their goal.

265.37/17 = $15.61

telo118 [61]

Answer:

48 months

first take how much you need and add how much you want to leave, so 2500+500=3000. Then delete 600 from 3000, which will give you $2400. divide $2400 by 50 which gives you 48. it will take 48 months to get enough money to purchase a car at $2500 and leave $500 in the account.
