Answer:
8.11 and 9 1/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know there are 3 quarts of pineapple juice and 2 gallons of orange juice the first thing you need to do is convert the units of the orange juice to quarts.
If there are 4 quarts in a gallon and we have 2 gallons then we have 8 quarts (4*2)
So 3 quarts of pineapple juice to 8 quarts of orange juice.
The ratio would be <u><em>3:8</em></u>
The first term, a, is 2. The common ratio, r, is 4. Thus,
a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).
Check: What's the first term? Let n=1. Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8. Is that correct? No.
Try this instead:
a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1). Is this correct? Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2? 2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2. YES.
The desired explicit formula is a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.
