Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to find area, we use the formula length times width. in this given question the area is already given. the inverse operation of multiplication is division, so you divide 1470 by 35 and end up with 42

40, 10, 5/2 5/8... (fractions) is it arithmetic or geometric and what are the next two terms PLZ HELP DUE IN 10 MINS

patriot [66]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

$40,\:10,\:\frac{5}{2},\:\frac{5}{8}$

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by

$\:a_n=a_0\cdot r^{n-1}$

Computing the ratios of all the adjacent terms

$\frac{10}{40}=\frac{1}{4},\:\quad \frac{\frac{5}{2}}{10}=\frac{1}{4},\:\quad \frac{\frac{5}{8}}{\frac{5}{2}}=\frac{1}{4}$

The ratio of all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

$r=\frac{1}{4}$

Thus, the given sequence is a geometric sequence.

As the first element of the sequence is

$a_1=40$

Therefore, the nth term is calculated as

$\:a_n=a_0\cdot r^{n-1}$

$a_n=40\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{n-1}$

Put n = 5 to find the next term

$a_5=40\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{5-1}$

$a_5=40\cdot \frac{1}{4^4}$

$a_5=\frac{40}{4^4}$

$=\frac{2^3\cdot \:5}{2^8}$

$a_5=\frac{5}{2^5}$

$a_5=\frac{5}{32}$

now, Put n = 6 to find the 6th term

$a_6=40\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{6-1}$

$a_6=40\cdot \frac{1}{4^5}$

$a_6=\frac{40}{4^5}$

$=\frac{2^3\cdot \:5}{2^{10}}$

$a_6=\frac{5}{2^7}$

$a_6=\frac{5}{128}$

Thus, the next two terms of the sequence 40, 10, 5/2, 5/8... is:

$a_5=\frac{5}{32}$

$a_6=\frac{5}{128}$
