Sequence: 3/4, 3/16, 3/64, 3/256
a8=?
a1=3/4
a2=3/16
a3=3/64
a4=3/256
a2/a1=(3/16)/(3/4)=(3/16)*(4/3)=4/16=1/4
a3/a2=(3/64)/(3/16)=(3/64)*(16/3)=16/64=1/4
a4/a3=(3/256)/(3/64)=(3/256)*(64/3)=64/256=1/4
a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3=r=1/4
an=a1*r^(n-1)
an=(3/4)*(1/4)^(n-1)
an=(3/4)*(1)^(n-1)/(4)^(n-1)
an=(3/4)*(1/4^(n-1))
an=(3*1)/[4*4^(n-1)]
an=3/4^(1+n-1)
an=3/4^n
n=8→a8=3/4^8
a8=3/65,536
Answers:

Answer:
a gas in a rigid container has a pressure of 632 torrs and a temperature of 45 celsius. The pressure has increased to 842 torrs. What is the new temperature of the gas
Hhhhmmmmm...
13.50 for food
2.40 for drink
Since there is a voucher for 1/3 of food,
13.50 multiplied by 1/3 is 4.5 which is the discount
13.50-4.5=9
9 is the final cost for the food.
Add 9 to 2.40 for the drink which results in a total of 11.40
To find the amount charged for service you multiply 11.40 by .15
11.40 × .15 = 1.71
You add 1.71 to 11.40
The total is 13.11
