Consider the geometric sequence below.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

f(1) = 8

Common ratio: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) means the firs term in a sequence.

In the function f(n), represented by 8, 4, 2, 1, .., the first term is 8.

f(1) = 8

To find the common ratio, divide any term by the term before it.

We can use any two of the given terms in the sequence EXCEPT for 8 because it is the first term and does not have a term before it.

I choose to divide the second term by the first term:

4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5

Answer:

y =112

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Find y

The attached triangle is isosceles; so:

x - 5=34

Also, we have:

y + x - 5 + 34=180 --- angles in a triangle

Substitute: x - 5=34

y + 34 + 34=180

Collect like terms

y =- 34 - 34+180

y =112
