Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 5

r = -5

n = 9

t_9 = a r^(n - 1)

t_9 = (-1)^n*5 (-5) ^ 8

t_9 = (-1)^9 * 5 * (-5) ^8

t_9 = -1 ( 1953125)

t_9 = - 1953125

Answer:

$45927/4096$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the geometric series, because the ratio of consecutive terms is common:

$r = 84/112 = 63/84 = 3/4$

The first term is 112.

So the nth term is:

$t_n = t_1*r^{n-1}$

The 9th term is:

$t_9 = 112*(3/4)^8=45927/4096$

D= 1546

T= 67

S= D/T=S

1546/ 67= 23.07

Q2.

D= 29

T= 32

S= D/T=S

29/32= 0.91

Q3.

D= 43

T= 40

S= D/T=S

43/40= 1.08

Q4.

D= 2467

T= 4.41

S= D/T=S

2467/4.41= 559.41
