The turtle population will be 486 after 5 years.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

The general form of a geometric progression or geometric sequence is a, ar, ar², ar³ and so on.

where,

  • a = first term
  • r = common ratio

<u>The formula to find the nth term in GP is :</u>

nth term = ar^{n-1}

The given sequence 6,18,54.

In this sequence,

  • The first term, a = 6
  • The common ratio, r = 18/6 = 3

5th term = 6\times3^{5-1}

⇒ 6\times3^{4}

⇒ 6\times81

⇒ 486

Therefore, after 5 years the population will be 486.

The quotient of n and 6
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The quotient of n and 6 is n/6, as quotient means divide.

for example, if it was "the quotient of 24 and 6", it would be 24/6, which is 4.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

a). Triangle in the figure is ΔBCF

b). Since, L_1 and L_2 are the parallel lines and m is a transversal line,

   m∠FBC = m∠BFG [Alternate interior angles]

   Since,  L_1 and L_2 are the parallel lines and n is a transversal line,

   m∠BCF = m∠CFE [Alternate interior angles]

   By triangle sum theorem in ΔBCF

   m∠FBC + m∠BCF + m∠BFC = 180°

   From the properties given above,

   m∠BFG + m∠CFE + m∠BFC = 180°

   m∠GFE = 180°

Therefore, angle GFE is the straight angle that will be useful in proving that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of the triangle is 180°.
