3 metres from one end to the third mark
Solution:
Total length of wood = 10 metre
Wood is marked into 10 equal length.
= 1 metre
Length of each marking = 1 metre
Number of metres from one end to third mark = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 metre
The image of the marking is attached below.
Hence 3 metres from one end to the third mark.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Geometric Sequence</u>
In geometric sequences, each term is found by multiplying (or dividing) the previous term by a fixed number, called the common ratio.
We are given the sequence:
48, 72, 108, ...
The common ratio is found by dividing the second term by the first term:
To ensure this is a geometric sequence, we use the ratio just calculated to find the third term a3=72*1.5=108.
Now we are sure this is a geometric sequence, we use the general term formula:
Where a1=48 and r=1.5
For example, to find the 5th term:
