Answer:

an=1*2.5^(n-1)

=2.5^(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question below:

What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio? Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence. On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).

Solution

Point (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).

a=1

ar=2.5

ar^2=6.25

From ar and ar^2

r=6.25/2.5

=2.5

r=2.5

an=ar^(n-1)

Therefore, the explicit formula is

an=1*2.5^(n-1)

=2.5^(n-1)

Given that secant theta = Negative StartFraction 37 Over 12 EndFraction, what is the value of cotangent theta, for StartFraction
Iteru [2.4K]

cot\theta  =\frac{12}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

sec\theta =\frac{37}{12}

⇔\frac{1}{cos \theta} =\frac{37}{12}

⇔cos \theta = \frac{12}{37}

we know that

sin \theta = \sqrt{1-cos^2\theta}

sin\theta =\sqrt{1-(\frac{12}{37})^2 }

sin\theta=\sqrt{\frac{1225}{1369} }

sin\theta = \frac{35}{37}

Therefore cot\theta =\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta}  =\frac{\frac{12}{37} }{\frac{35}{37} }  =\frac{12}{35}  , for \frac{\pi}{2}
