Truck is 30% less than bus
40 divided by 1.3 = 30.77
Car is 75% less than truck
30.77 divided by 1.75. = 17.58 feet

I need help with #65 to #70 ASAP please and thank you …. Could someone please help me with it… I need to get it done ASAP… it is

never [62]

All of the given questions(#65 to #70) are AP(s).

Formula to be used: a(n) = a(1) + (n - 1)d

Pronounced as:

nth term = 1st term + (n - 1)d, where d is the common difference.

*d = difference of any two consecutive terms.

65):

1st term = 2, d = 6 - 2 = 4

Therefore,

11th term = 2 + (11 - 1)4 = 42

66):

1st term = 5, d = 15 - 5 = 10

Therefore,

16th term = 5 + (16 - 1)10 = 155

67):

1st term = 19, d = 39 - 19 = 20

Therefore,

21st term = 19 + (21 - 1)20 = 419

68):

1st term = 8, d = 38 - 8 = 30

Therefore,

36th term = 8 + (36 - 1)30 = 1058

69):

1st term = 1/2, d = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

Therefore,

101st term = 1/2 + (101 - 1)1/2 = 101/2

70):

1st term = 0.75, d = 1.50 - 0.75 = 0.75

Therefore,

151st term = 0.75 + (151 - 1)(0.75) = 113.25

The 13th term of a geometric sequence is 16, 384 and the first term is 4. What is the common ratio?

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

In your geometric sequence, a₁ = 4 and a₁₃ = 16 384.

$\begin{array}{rcl}16384 & = & 4r^{(13 - 1)}}\\16384 & = & 4r^{12}\\4096 & = & r^{12}\\3.6124 & = & 12 \log r\\0.30102 & = & \log r\\r & = & 10^{0.30102}\\ & = & \mathbf{2}\\\end{array}\\\text{The common ratio is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{2}}$}$

Check:

$\begin{array}{rcl}16384 & = & 4(2)^{12}\\16384 & = & 4(4096)\\16384 & = & 16384\\\end{array}$

It checks.
