PLEASE!!!!! HELP ME!!!!!!

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

15 = a_1 r^4 (1)

1 = a_1 r^5 (2)

If we divide equations (2) and (1) we got:

\frac{r^5}{r^4}= \frac{1}{15}

And then r= \frac{1}{15}

And then we can find the value a_1 and we got from equation (1)

a_1 = \frac{15}{r^4} = \frac{15}{(\frac{1}{15})^4} =759375

And then the general term for the sequence would be given by:

a_n = 759375 (\frac{1}{15})^n-1 , n=1,2,3,4,...

And the best option would be:

C) a1=759,375; an=an−1⋅(1/15)

Step-by-step explanation:

the general formula for a geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = a_1 r^{n-1}

For this case we know that a_5 = 15, a_6 = 1

Then we have the following conditions:

15 = a_1 r^4 (1)

1 = a_1 r^5 (2)

If we divide equations (2) and (1) we got:

\frac{r^5}{r^4}= \frac{1}{15}

And then r= \frac{1}{15}

And then we can find the value a_1 and we got from equation (1)

a_1 = \frac{15}{r^4} = \frac{15}{(\frac{1}{15})^4} =759375

And then the general term for the sequence would be given by:

a_n = 759375 (\frac{1}{15})^n-1 , n=1,2,3,4,...

And the best option would be:

C) a1=759,375; an=an−1⋅(1/15)

What is the area of the trapezoid
irga5000 [103]

The equation for a trapezoid is A = a+b all over 2 times h

So, you would simply substitute.

A=15

B=12

H=8

15+12/2 (8)=

27/2 (8)=

13.5 (8)=

108.

Answer:

-3x³ - 4x² + x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

 -5x³ + 2x² + x - 7

- <u>(-2x³ + 6x² + 0 + 2)</u>     remember:  when you subtract, you 'add the opposite'

 -3x³ + (-4x²) + x + (-9)

How many terms are in the arithmetic sequence 1313, 1616, 1919, ……, 7070, 7373?
Nataliya [291]
To find the number of terms in the arithmetic sequence, we need to use the formula 
a_{n}= a_{1}+(n-1)d    
where a_{n} is the nth number, a_{1} is the first number, n is the number of terms and d is the difference of the two consecutive numbers.
7373 = 1313 + (n - 1)(303)
7373 = 1313 + 303n - 303
7373 = 1010 + 303n
7373 - 1010 = 303n
6363 = 303n
6363 ÷ 303 = n
n = 21

Therefore, there are 21 terms in the arithmetic sequence given.
