Answer:

The formula to find the nth term of the given sequence is 54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for nth term of an geometric progression is :

a_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n})}{r}

In this example, we have a_{1} = 36 (the first term in the sequence) and

r = \frac{2}{3} (the rate in which the sequence is changing).

Knowing what the values for r and a_{1} are, now we can solve.

a_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n})}{r} = \frac{36 (\frac{2}{3} ^{n}) }{\frac{2}{3} } = 54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

Therefore, the formula to find the nth term of the given sequence is

54 · \frac{2}{3} ^{n}

PLEASE HELP ME!!! The students in Suzanne's school are painting a rectangular mural outside the building that will be 15 feet by
Andrew [12]

Answer:

length of scale drawing = 9 feet

width of scale drawing = 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual dimension  15 feet by 45 feet.

length = 45 feet

width = 15 feet

Dimension on drawing is 20% of actual dimension.

20% = 20/100

Thus,

20% of 15 feet = 20/100 * 15 feet = 3 feet

20% of 45 feet = 20/100 * 45 feet = 9 feet

Thus, length of scale drawing = 9 feet

width of scale drawing = 3 feet
