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}

3/8 x 2/6 x 4/8 x 5/12
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

\frac{5}{192}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{8} * \frac{2}{6} * \frac{4}{8} * \frac{5}{12}

Multiply all numerators

3 * 2 * 4 * 5 = 6 * 20 = 120

Multiply all denominators

8 * 6 * 8 * 12 = 48 * 96 = 4,608

\frac{120}{4608}

Simplify

\frac{5}{192}

Hope this helps :)

Which technique is most appropriate to use to solve each equation? Drag the name of the technique into the box to match each equ
faltersainse [42]
(x + 3) (x + 2) = 0
 To solve it, the most appropriate technique is:
 1.) zero product property
 The solutions are:
 (x + 3) = 0
 x = -3
 (x + 2) = 0
 x = -2
 
 x² + 6 = 31
 
To solve it, the most appropriate technique is:
 2.) square root property
 x² = 31-6
 x² = 25
 x = +/- root (25)
 x = +/- 5
 The solutions are:
 x = 5
 x = -5
