If you notice, in the sum the terms are 2, -8, 32, -128....
we can always get the "common ratio" of a geometric sequence by dividing the "following term by the previous term", namely like in this case say -8/2, which is -4, so r = -4, and we know the first term is 2.
so, notice, the pattern will then be
290 divided by 10(value of a dime)= 29
answer is 29 dimes
I'm pretty sure number 6 is 9.23 in
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the given data sets have x-values that are sequential with a difference of 1. That makes it easy to determine the sort of sequence the y-values make.
<u>first choice</u>: the y-values have a common difference of -2. This will be matched by a linear model.
<u>second choice</u>: the y-values have a common difference of +2. Again, this will be matched by a linear model.
<u>third choice</u>: the y-values have a common ratio of -2. This will be matched by an exponential model.
<u>fourth choice</u>: the y-value differences are 3, 5, 7, increasing by a constant amount (2). This is characteristic of a sequence that has a quadratic model.
The total surface area is 121.8yd^2 and the lateral surface area is 79.8yd^2.
121.8 - 79.8 = 42
