What is a formula for the nth term of the given sequence?

Mathematics

lakkis [162]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence because the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio.

The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

an = a1r^(n - 1)

Where

a1 represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

n represents the number of terms.

From the information given,

a1 = 36

r = 12/36 = 4/12 = 1/3

Therefore, the formula for the nth term of the sequence is

an = 36 × 1/3^(n - 1)

an = 36 × 3^-1(n - 1)

an = 36 × 3^(-n + 1)

an = 36 × 3^(1 - n)

What is the value of x
kozerog [31]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If the upper triangle has a right angle at Island C, we need only use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x:

(10 mi)^2 + (20 mi)^2 = x^2, so that

x^2 = 100 mi^2 + 400 mi^2 = 500 mi^2, which reduces to

x = +10√5 mi

Note that the shortest side (10 mi) is adjacent to a 30 degree angle.  Thus, the upper triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem DOES apply here.

Next time, please incude ALL of the verbal instructions.  Thank you.

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, write in simplest radical<br> form.<br> 8<br> 17
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know that its a right triangle and 8 and \sqrt{17} are not the hypotenuse.

the equation for this is a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2} with c being the hypotenuse.

8^{2}+\sqrt{17} ^{2}=c^{2}

64+17=c^{2}

81=c

\sqrt{81}=c

9=c
