Find the 10th term of the geometric sequence 1, 3, 9, ...

Mathematics
1 answer:
ladessa [460]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a(10) = 3^9 = 19683

Step-by-step explanation:

In this sequence each new term is equal to 3 times the previous term.  Thus, 3 is the common ratio.  The first term is 1.

The general formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence i

a(n) = a(1)*r^(n -1), where r is the common ratio.

Here, a(n) = 1*3^(n - 1), and so

the 10th term is

           a(10) = 1*3^(10 - 1), or

            a(10) = 3^9 = 19683

If X = 4 units, Y = 3 units, and Z = 6 units, then what is the surface area of the right triangular pyramid shown above?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

C. 42

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Since the triangle making up the base of the right triangular pyramid is equilateral, the three lateral triangles will have equal areas. To find the surface area of the pyramid, find the area of one of the lateral triangles and multiply it by 3. Then, add that to the area of the triangle that forms the base.</em>

<em>Area of Lateral Triangle = 1/2 · base · height</em>

<em>                                        = 1/2 · X · Z</em>

<em>                                       = 1/2 ·  4 units ·  6 units</em>

<em>                                       = 12 square units</em>

<em>Area of Base Triangle = 1/2 ·  base ·  height</em>

<em>                                     = 1/2 ·  X ·  Y</em>

<em>                                     = 1/2 ·  4 units ·  3 units</em>

<em>                                    = 6 square units</em>

<em>Now, use the method described above to find the surface area of the pyramid.</em>

<em>Surface Area = 3( Area lateral ) + ( Area base )</em>

<em>                      = 3 ( 12 square units ) + ( 6 square units )</em>

<em>                     = 42 square units</em>
