Answer:

3,12,36, is not a geometric sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

For the sequence a, b, c to be a geometric sequence, we have

b² = ac

Therefore, in order to check 3,12,36, a geometric sequence, we do the square of the middle term and see if it is equal to the product of first and third term or not.

12² =144

And 3 × 36 = 108

Since, 144 ≠ 108

<h3>Hence, 3,12,36, is not a geometric sequence</h3>

A geometric sequence goes from one term to the next by always multiplying (or dividing) by the same value. So 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,... and 81, 27, 9, 3, 1, 1/3,... are geometric, since you multiply by 2 and divide by 3, respectively, at each step.

Your problem doesnt have this pattern.

The price of a four star meal, only $100 per couple decades ago, has since increased 200%. What is the current price?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Well if the price was $100 per couple and increased by 200% then it increased by 2 times the original price. So that means the price doubled so multiply. $100 by 2 which equals $200. So the current price is now $200.

Carmen bought a desktop computer and a laptop computer. Before finance charges, the laptop cost $200 less than the desktop. She
stiks02 [169]
Let x = cost of desktop computer; then x - 250 = cost of laptop computer

converting % to decimals, 9% = 0.09 and 6% = 0.06

Then, 0.09x + (x - 250)0.06 = $300
0.09x + 0.06x - 15 = $300
0.15x = $315
x = $2100
then x - 250 = $1850

Proof: $2100•0.09 + 1850•0.06 = $189 + $111 = $300

**I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO THE PERSON WHO CAN HELP ME/AND 40 POINTS**
Mama L [17]

Tank calculations :

Volume = 1/4(4/3 * pi * r^3)

r= 70 feet.

Volume = 1/4(4/3 * 3.14 * 70^3)

Calculating the values:

Volume = 359,000.67 ft.cubed

No we divide the actual radius by 6 to get the volume of scale model.

Hence,

6^3 = 216 times smaller.
