What is the missing term in the geometric sequence?

Mathematics

Is a geometric sequence, so that means a number is multiplying to current term to get the next one... meaning if we simply divide those two terms, the quotient is that "multiplier", namely the "common ratio"

so... hmm let's try say -1536 and 384

\bf \cfrac{-1536}{384}\implies -4\impliedby \textit{common ratio}
\\\\\\
n^{th}\textit{ term of a geometric sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
n=n^{th}\ term\\
----------\\
a_1=-6\\
r=-4\\
n=3
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\textit{the third term is then }\implies a_3=(-6)(-4)^{3-1}
\\\\\\
a_2=(-6)(-4)^2\implies a_2=-6\cdot 16\implies a_2=-96

How many times does the digit 7 appear among the terms of the sequence of consecutive integer numbers 7, 8, 9, ...., 777?
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

234 times

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Number of times the number 7 appears in a hundred</u>

7 as units digit (07-17-27 ..... 97): 10 times

7 as tens digit (70-71-72..... 79): 10 times

20 times the digit 7 appears in first one hundred (0-100)

Let's calculate how many times 7 would be as units or tens in 7 hundreds

20X7 = 140 times digit 7 appears until number 699

<u>Now, from 700 to 777</u>

7 as hundreds digit (700-701-702 .... 777): 78 times

7 as tens digit (770-771-772 .... 777): 8 times

7 as units digit (707-717-727....777): 8 times

78 + 8 + 8 = 94 times the digit 7 appears in the range 700 - 777. Plus 140 times

140 + 94 = 234 times
