Hello :
<span>the nth term of a geometric sequence is :
Un = Up ×r^(n-p) . r is the common ratio
for : p=5 and n= 2
U5 = U2 ×r^3
16 = -2 r^3
r^3 = -8
but : -8 = (-2)^3
so : r = -2
Un = U2 × r^(n-2)
Un = -2 ×(-2)^(n-2)= (-2)^(n-2+1)
</span><span>the nth term of a geometric sequenceis : Un = (-2)^(n-1)</span>
Answer:
3/17
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 divided by 4 1/4 is = to 3/4 divided by 17/4= 3/4 times 4/17 = 3/17
When you have ratios, and some unknowns, you can create complex fractions from them. Bring them to the same denominator, and solve for x.
Example - we have this proportion:
2-x
5-45
And we can change it into fraction:
\frac{2}{5}=\frac{x}{45}
\frac{2*9}{5*9}=\frac{x}{45}
\frac{18}{45}=\frac{x}{45}
18=x
In case of more complex fractions it may come in handy.
Answer:
very fast
Step-by-step explanation:
10.2 miles per minute :)
What was i correct was the 2nd step since when multiplying -2x-6 it would be a positive 12 not a negative :)
