Answer:-1/32

Step-by-step explanation:

First term=a=1024

Common ratio=r=-512/1024

r=-1/2

Using them formula

Tn=a x r^(n-1)

T16=1024 x (-1/2)^(16-1)

T16=1024 x (-1/2)^15

T16=1024 x -1/32768

T16=-1024/32768

T16=-1/32

Factor completely x3 − 2x2 − 5x + 10.

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

(x-2) (x^2 -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 − 2x^2 − 5x + 10

We will factor by grouping

Take and x^2 out of the first two terms and -5 out of the last two terms

x^2 (x-2) -5(x-2)

Now we can factor out (x-2)

(x-2) (x^2 -5)

In ΔUVW, w = 3 inches, ∠W=23° and ∠U=73°. Find the length of u, to the nearest 10th of an inch.

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

<h2>7.4inches</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the attachment for the diagram. Sine rule will be used to get the unknown side of the triangle.

According to the rule;

$\frac{u}{sinU} = \frac{v}{sinV} = \frac{w}{sinW}\\\frac{u}{sinU} = \frac{w}{sinW}$

Given w = 3 in, ∠W=23° and ∠U=73°, on substituting into the equation above to get u we have;

$\frac{u}{sin73^{0} } = \frac{3}{sin23^{0} }\\usin23^{0} = 3sin73^{0}\\u = \frac{3sin73^{0} }{sin23^{0} }\\u = \frac{2.87}{0.39} \\u = 7.358\\u = 7.4in$

The length of u is 7.4inches to nearest 10th of an inch
