A geometric sequence is a sequence with a common ratio multiplied by previous term to give the next. Lets call x the common ratio, so we know that 4 was multiplied by x to give the second term, and so forth until it was multiplied again and again by x until the 16384 was reached which happens to be the 13th term, that means that 4x was multiplied by x 12 more times to give 16384, that is:
4x^12 = 16384
x^12 = 4096
x = 4096^-12
x = 4.48 x 10^-44
that is the common ratio

pshichka [43]
We are given with the data of 490 milligrams of sodium content of burrito and 700 milligrams of sodium content of peanut butter sandwich. The total sodium consumption should be less than 4000 milligrams. We are told to represent he number of microwave burritos as x and the number of peanut butter sandwiches as y. The inequality equation thus is 490 x  + 700 y ≤ 4000.

If f(x)=x2+10sinx, show that there is a number c such that f(c)=1000.
gayaneshka [121]
F(x) is continuous for all x.

Pick a point and show that f(x) is either negative or positive. Pick another point and show that f(x) is negative, if positive, or positive, if negative.

At x = 30, f(30) - 1000 = 900 + 10sin(30) - 1000 ≤ 0
Now, show at another point f(x) - 1000 is positive, and hence, there would be root between 30 and such point.

Let's pick 40.
At x = 40, f(40) - 1000 = 1600 + 10sin(40) - 1000 ≥ 0

Since f(x) - 1000 is continuous, there lies a root between 30 and 40, and hence, 30 ≤ c ≤ 40
