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

Mathematics

lakkis [162]4 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)

Elimination method. -2y = 0.5 - 2x<br> 6х + Зу = 6
AysviL [449]

Answer:

y=-1.5

X=1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Yuh arrange the equations in order for easy subtracting of the equations.

-2y=0.5-2x. divide both sides by 2 to get y=-x-0.25.

6x+3y=6

3y=-6x+6 then divide both sides by three to get y

y=-2x+2

now arrange

y=-2x+2

y=-x-0.25 then multiple both equations by the cordinates of X value to eliminate x

Find the are of the trapizoind
Andreyy89

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7.5 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel bases, and h is the perpendicular distance between them.

Here, the bases are TR = 1 and PA = 4. The height is 3 units, so the area is ...

  A = (1/2)(1 +4)(3) = 15/2 = 7.5 . . . . square units

Answer:

Radius of P = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius (r) of Q = 20 cm

Area of Q = 4 × Area of P

This means that:

Area of the quarter circle (Q) = 4 × Area of the circle (P)

Thus:

¼(πr²) = 4 × πr²

Plug in the values into the equation

¼(π*20²) = 4 × πr²

Find the value of r, which is the radius of P

¼(400π) = 4πr²

Multiply both sides by 4

400π = 4πr²*4

400π = 16πr²

Divide both sides by 16π

400π/16π = r²

25 = r²

Take the square root of both sides

√25 = √r²

5 = r

r = 5

Therefore, the radius of P = 5 cm

Four-thirds times the sum of a number and 8 is 24. what is the number?
labwork [276]
So first you take the words and put them into an equation. "a number" that never gets directly told to you will always be a variable, which is easiest to make X. "The sum of a number and 8" will mean that 8+something is the sum so they have to go in parenthesis... giving you
 4/3*(x+8)=24
now just solve for X, remembering to use the reverse of PEMDAS, since you're solving for the variable.
remove what is furthest away to the X first.
x+8=24*3/4
x+8=18
x=18-8
x=10
Now, remember to always go through and replace your variable with its value and solve. if it is not equal on both sides, retry the problem because you may have missed a small +, -, or * somewhere!


Hope this helped:)
