The third term of the geometric progression will be 1 / 27 with common ratio 2 / 3.
We are given that:
2nd term of geometric progression = 1 / 18
5th term = 4 / 243
Now, we can also write it as:
2nd term = a r ( where r is the common ratio and a is the initial term.)
a r = 1 / 18
5th term = a r⁴
a r⁴ = 4 / 243
Now divide 5th term by 2nd term, we get that:
a r⁴ / a r = ( 4 / 243 ) / ( 1 / 18 )
r³ = 72 / 243
r³ = 8 / 27
r = ∛ (8 / 27)
r = 2 / 3
3rd term = a r²
a r² = a r × r
= 1 / 18 × 2 / 3
3rd term = 1 / 27
Therefore, the third term of the geometric progression will be 1 / 27 with common ratio 2 / 3.

Answer:
3,240
Step-by-step explanation:
5) The relation between intensity and current appears linear for intensity of 300 or more (current = intensity/10). For intensity of 150, current is less than that linear relation would predict. This seems to support the notion that current will go to zero for zero intensity. Current might even be negative for zero intensity since the line through the points (300, 30) and (150, 10) will have a negative intercept (-10) when current is zero.
Usually, we expect no output from a power-translating device when there is no input, so we expect current = 0 when intensity = 0.
6) We have no reason to believe the linear relation will not continue to hold for values of intensity near those already shown. We expect the current to be 100 for in intensity of 1000.
8) Apparently, times were only measured for 1, 3, 6, 8, and 12 laps. The author of the graph did not want to extrapolate beyond the data collected--a reasonable choice.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
7 x 4 = 28
so you do 5 x 4 and get 20
As stated in (i), the equation of the line is: ln y = -0.015x + .26
(By the way, I checked your answers for parts (i) and (ii) and they are both correct)
(iii)
Plug in (1.1) for y and solve:
ln (1.1) = -0.015x + .26
0.095 = -0.015x + .26
-0.165 = - 0.015x
10.979 = x
Answer: x = 10.979
