Answer:
The nth term of the geometric sequence 7, 14, 28, ... is:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the geometric sequence
7, 14, 28, ...
We know that a geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by

where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio
Computing the ratios of all the adjacent terms

The ratio of all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

now substituting r = 2 and a₁ = 7 in the nth term


Therefore, the nth term of the geometric sequence 7, 14, 28, ... is:

Answer:
x = ± 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x² - 256 = 0 ( add 256 to both sides )
4x² = 256 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x² = 64 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ±
= ± 8
Solutions are x = - 8, x = 8
Parenthesis first
11+4=15
division second
15/3=5
what is the square root of 64? 8!
8x5=40
Answer is 40
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, it is important to know where the train that leaves Washington will get after one hour since they didn't start at the same time between noon and 1 is 1 hour.
Speed = distance / time
Distance = speed * time
The distance S = 44 * 1
S= 44m
To determine the time they will pass each other
500(total distance)- 44 ( distance gotten to in 1 hour) - d(the distance it willl pass each other =44* t(time the train will pass each other.
456-d =44t
Second train
d = 32t
Substituting to the equation
456-32t=44t
456=76t
t= 6 hours.
The time they will pass each other is six hours.
