Answer:

Tn = 2 * ±5^(n-1)

where Tn is the nth term of the geometric sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric sequence is one in which there are changes between consecutive terms as a result of a common ratio.

A geometric sequence with a common ratio r and a as it's first term has an nth term defined as

Tn = ar^n-1 as such, if a1 = 2 a3 = 50 then

T3 = ar^3-1

50 = 2 * r²

r² = 25

r = ±5

The rule for the nth term may be written as

Tn = 2 * ±5^(n-1)

What is the range of the function y = 5sin(θ 60°) − 4?

melisa1 [442]

he range if -5 ≤ y ≤ 5.

The period is 2π/(π/2) = 4.

The graph passes through (0, 0), has a maximum at (1, 5), crosses the x-axis at (2, 0), then has a minimum at (3. -5), and crosses the x-axis again at (4, 0).

You are training for a 5K race. This morning you ran 8 miles in 1 hour. If you run the race at this speed, how many minutes will

Lynna [10]

Answer:

About 23 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

8 miles is approximately 12.9 kilometers, so you would need to do the equation 12.9/1 = 5/x, which gives you the percentage of an hour you need, and then convert that to minutes by multiplying by 60.
