Given the following geometric sequence, find the common ratio: {3, 18, 108, ...).

1 answer:

4 0

Geometric sequences go up due to a common ratio. Here the common ratio can be worked out by dividing a term by its previous term e.g term 2 divided by term 1.

$18/3 = 6
$

Therefore the common ratio is 6.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex. The vertex is the turning point, or minimum, of the function. It is (x, y) = (-4, 0). The x-coordinate there is -4, so the equation of the axis of symmetry is ...

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:
SAS

Explanation:
In triangle ABC:
a would be the side opposite to angle A
c would be the side opposite to angle C

Combining the given, we would fine that we have the measures of two of the sides and the measure of the angle included between them.
This means that we have SAS information.

Check the attached image for visual illustration.

Hope this helps :)
