Answer:
a) Find the common ratio of this sequence.
Answer: -0.82
b) Find the sum to infinity of this sequence.
Answer: 2.2
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term in geometric series is given by ![4\ th \ term = ar^n-1\\-2.196 = 4r^{4-1} \\-2.196/4 = r^{3} \\r = \sqrt[3]{0.549} \\r = 0.82](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%5C%20th%20%5C%20term%20%3D%20ar%5En-1%5C%5C-2.196%20%3D%204r%5E%7B4-1%7D%20%5C%5C-2.196%2F4%20%3D%20r%5E%7B3%7D%20%5C%5Cr%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B0.549%7D%20%5C%5Cr%20%3D%200.82)
where
a is the first term
r is the common ratio and
n is the nth term

given
a = 4
4th term = -2.196
let
common ratio of this sequence. be r
![4\ th \ term = ar^n-1\\-2.196 = 4r^{4-1} \\-2.196/4 = r^{3} \\r = \sqrt[3]{-0.549} \\r = -0.82](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%5C%20th%20%5C%20term%20%3D%20ar%5En-1%5C%5C-2.196%20%3D%204r%5E%7B4-1%7D%20%5C%5C-2.196%2F4%20%3D%20r%5E%7B3%7D%20%5C%5Cr%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-0.549%7D%20%5C%5Cr%20%3D%20-0.82)
a) Find the common ratio of this sequence.
answer: -0.82
sum of infinity of geometric sequence is given by = a/(1-r)
thus,
sum to infinity of this sequence = 4/(1-(-0.82) = 4/1.82 = 2.2
Answer:
OK so the equation has a exponent so if there is a exponent then you need to multiply. since 227 is the Area and the exponent is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is A.
That is because the whole paragraph talks about a model car that they are testing but this student is wondering about roller coasters.
Hope this helps :)
Ratio is 5girls:7boys with total 72 students
5+7= 12
72➗12= 6
6(5:7)= 30 girls : 42 boys
New ratio is 3:4 with 48 boys
48➗4= 12
So for girls 3x12= 36
So started with 30 girls ended with 36 girls... 6 girls joined band during the school year.
The 8th term is 33 and I don't think any of the options are there
