Mohamed and Li Jing were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence -5, -25, -125, -625,....

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Li Jing's formula i.e. $\boxed{g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}}$ is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the sequence

$-5,\:-25,\:-125,\:-625,...$

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

$g_n=g_0\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:ratios\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms}:\quad \:r=\frac{g_{n+1}}{g_n}$

$\frac{-25}{-5}=5,\:\quad \frac{-125}{-25}=5,\:\quad \frac{-625}{-125}=5$

$\mathrm{The\:ratio\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms\:is\:the\:same\:and\:equal\:to}$

$r=5$

So, the sequence is geometric.

$\mathrm{The\:first\:element\:of\:the\:sequence\:is}$

$g_1=-5$

$r=5$

$g_n=g_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:}n\mathrm{th\:term\:is\:computed\:by}\:$

$g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}$

Therefore, Li Jing's formula i.e. $\boxed{g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}}$ is right.

I think the answer is C) 4x=12 but I am not sure. Please help and explain!!

Dmitriy789 [7]

You are correct, C) 4x = 12.

So, if 4 people are eating 12 pieces of pizza, simply divide 12 by 4 and there's your answer!

12 / 4 = 3 Each person gets 3 slices of pizza.

A butcher has 10 3/4 pounds of ground beef that will be priced at 3.40 dollars per pound. He divides the meat into 8 equal packa

spin [16.1K]

Well we know that 10 and 3/4 is equivalent to 10.75. If we divide the meat into 8 equal packages we have to divide 10.75 by 8. Dividing 10.75 by 8 gives us 1.34375 pounds of meat per package. If we take that, and multiply it by our given value of $3.40 per pound, we end up getting $4.57 a package.

The base change property can help in what type of scenarios? HELP ME!!!!!

Mekhanik [1.2K]

<h3>Base Change Property</h3><h3 />

The Base Change Property is very helpful in scenarios related to simplifying equations where the logarithmic terms have a varying base.

So to solve an equation, which possesses logarithmic functions, all logarithmic terms must have a similar base.

<h3>What is Base Change Property?</h3><h3 />

This refers to the base formula which is used to write a logarithm of a number with a base that is fixed as the ratio of two logarithms both having the same base but different from the base of the initial or original logarithm.

Change of Base Formula is given as:

$log_{b} a = \frac{Log_{c} a }{Log_{c} b}$
