Answer:

<h2>Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹ where;

a is the first term of the geometric sequence

r is the common ratio

n is the number of terms

If a geometric sequence has a common ratio of 2 and the 12th term is −12,288, then;

T₁₂ = ar¹²⁻¹

T₁₂ = ar¹¹

Given T₁₂ = -12,288 and r = 2, we can calculate the first term a

-12,288 = a2¹¹

a = -12,288/2¹¹

a =  -12,288/2048

a = -6

Since the explicit rule for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹, then for the sequence given, the explicit rule will be;

Tₙ = -6(2)ⁿ⁻¹

Tₙ = -6 * 2ⁿ * 2⁻¹

Tₙ = -6 * 2ⁿ * 1/2

Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ

Hence the explicit rule that describes this sequence is Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ

11/21 as a decimal and a percent
pochemuha

11/21 written as a decimal would be 0.52381 and in percent, it would be 52.381%.

To solve percent, since the total or 1/1 is 100%, we have to remember that the answer is less than 100%. So, we move 2 decimal places right to make it into percent. Then, the answer is 52.381.

To solve percent, you would do 100/21. Then, you would get 4.7619047619. You multiply that by 11 and get 52.381. But, you have to move 2 places left since fractions are tens, hundreds. So, you would get 0.52381.

Sean has 1/5 of a cupcake and 1/5 of a large cake. Does the sum 1/5 + 1/5 make sense in this situation
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The size of the cupcake and the size of the cake differ, so when your saying 1/5 of the cupcake, 1/5 of a cupcake is not the same as 1/5 of the cake . Idk if this will help, but I gave you a suggestion!
