Answer:

$a_{n} = 22 + (-3)(n - 1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is 22. It looks like each term after that is the term before, plus a negative 3.

a-sub-one = 22

common difference = d= -3

Formula for $a_{n}$ :

$a_{n} = 22 + (-3)(n - 1)$ = 25 - 3n

If the volume of a sphere is 256π/3 what is the radius?

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is equal to 4/3πr³.

Set up the equation;

4/3πr³=256π/3

Multiple both sides by 3/(4π):

r³=64

r=∛64=4 (ans)

Can someone help me with this?

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Let 'a' be the first term, 'r' be the common ratio and 'n' be the number of terms

Series = 2+6+18.......= 2+2•3¹+ 2•3².......= 728

Now,

$Sum = \frac{a( {r}^{n} - 1) }{(r - 1)} \\$

So,

$\frac{a( {r}^{n} - 1)}{(r - 1)} = 728 \\ \frac{2( {3}^{n} - 1) }{(3 - 1)} = 728 \\ \frac{2( {3}^{n} - 1) }{2} = 728 \\ {3}^{n} - 1 = 728 \\ {3}^{n}=728+1\\ {3}^{n} = 729 \\ {3}^{n} = {3}^{6} \\ \boxed{ n = 6}$

Therefore, number of terms is 6

6 is the right answer.
