Answer:
The geometric sequence would be 3, 6, 12, 24 . . .
Step-by-step explanation:
A <u>geometric sequence</u> is when the you find the next term in the sequence by multiplying by a <em>common ratio</em>. (A common ratio is the constant value that you <em>multiply</em> by each time in a geometric sequence.) In order to solve your problem, you would find the relationship between each term in the sequence. For the first sequence, 3, 6, 12, 24, etc., you can see that the ratio between one term and the next would be two: 3×2 = 6, 6×2 = 12, 12×2 = 24, and so on. This makes it a geometric sequence, but you still need to check the other sequences to make sure. For the sequence 4, 8, 12, 16, . . . , you need to add four each time. This means that the sequence has a <em>common difference</em>, or the constant value you <em>add or subtract</em> by in an <u>arithmetic sequence</u>. So, we know that the second sequence is not the answer. Finally, we check the last sequence, and if you look at it you can see that the you square the previous term to get the current one. This is different from a geometric sequence, and has a different name. However, it is not a geometric sequence because you are not multiplying by the <em>same</em> value each time (it doesn't have a common ratio). So, the first sequence, 3, 6, 12, 24, . . . , is a geometric sequence.
Answer: 30 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
10 / 2.5 = 4
7.5 * 4 = 30
2,000, 200 and 20 are similar except for the number of zeros.
You can remove a zero from each to equal the number of zeros in the divisor. So 80,000 ÷ 2,000 is equivalent to 80 ÷ 2 = 40 you just remove the 3 zeros
80,000 ÷ 200 is equivalent to 800 ÷ 2 = 400 you just keep removing 0s like for instance this time it was 2 lastly 80,000 ÷ 20 only allows us to remove 1 zero 8,000 ÷ 2 = 4,000. The smaller the divisor the greater the quotient when dividing the same number like for instance in this example 80,000
Commission formula : C = prn
C = commission
p = price of one item <===
r = commission rate
n = number of items sold
is that a math question? can you type out the full question please?
