Answer:
1/5^8
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)
(5^-2)^4
5^(2*-4)
5^-8
We know that a^-b = 1/a^b
1/5^8
1490/4 =372.5................
Answer:
d) 303 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
4th term = ar^3 and 5th = ar^4 where a = first term and r = common ratio.
So ar^4 / ar^3
= r = 45/-15 = -3.
Working back,:
The first term a = ar^3/ r^3
= -15 / (-3)^3
= -15/-27
= 5/9
Sum of n terms = a * (r^n - 1)/(r-1)
= 5/9 * ((-3)^7 - 1 ) / (-3 -1)
= 303 8/9
