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)

Mike just hopped on the edge of a merry-go-round. What are his linear and angular speeds if the diameter of the merry-go-round i
dsp73

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of the merry-go-round, d = 14 feet

Time taken, t = 6 seconds

Radius, r = 7 feet

The linear speed of the merry-go-round is given by :

v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 7}{6}\\\\=7.33\ m/s

Also,

v=r\omega

Where

\omega is the angular speed

So,

\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{7.33}{7}\\\\=1.04\ rad/s

Hence, his linear and angular speeds are 7.33 m/s and 1.04 rad/s.
