The common ratio is the current number divided by the previous. So the ratio is 1/2

The sequence is 12, 6, 3, 3/2, 3/4 ...

You can obtain any number multiplying the previous number times 1/2.

6 = 12 *(1/2)

3 = 6*(1/2)

3/2 = 3*(1/2)

Answer:

Common ratio = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence that progresses geometrically has the first term as 12.

Each number is the previous number divided by 2.

so the sequence will be 12, 6, 3, 1.5...........

Explicit formula of a geometric sequence is given by

T_{n}=a(r)^{n-1}

Where T_{n} = nth term of the sequence

a = first term

r = common ratio

and n = number of term

In this sequence common ratio = \frac{\text{Successive term}}{\text{previous term}}

= \frac{6}{12}

= \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, common ratio will be \frac{1}{2}

Carrie runs 11.5 miles and five hours at a study pi runs 11.5 miles in five hours at a steady pace how long does it take her to
alukav5142 [94]

dividing 11.5 by 5 gives you the unit rate, then you just multiply that answer by 2 and you should be okay

How am I supposed to integrate this?

6x^2-4x+1=6\left(x-\dfrac13\right)^2+\dfrac13\ge0

which means the parabola lies above the x-axis over its entire domain. This means the area is given by

\displaystyle\int_{-1}^2(6x^2-4x+1)\,\mathrm dx=2x^3-x^2+x\bigg|_{x=-1}^{x=2}=10-(-5)=15
