Answer:

  1. The sequence is an Arthemtic Progression

An=A1+(n-1)d

A1 is first term, An is nth term, n is number of term, and d is common difference

therefore

A4=35, A1= -17

A4=A1+(4-1)d

35= -17+3d

35+17=3d

52=3d

52/3=3d/3

14=d

common diffrence(d)=14

  • The general solution is given by

An= -17+(n-1)14

An= -17+14n-14

An= -31+14n

<u>An= 14n-31</u>

A14 term, means n=14

From An=A1+(n-1)d

A14= -17+(14-1)14

= -17+(13×14)

= -17+182

= 165.

<u>Therfore, the 14th term is 165.</u>

2. A sequence has a CR of 4/5 and its eighth term (a8) is (393216/3125). What is its general equation? Its 3rd term?

<u>solution</u>

common ratio(r)=4/5

eighth term(G8)=393216/3125

From Gn= G1r^(n-1)

G8 means n=8

G8=G1r^(n-1)

393216/3125=G1(4/5)^(8-1)

393216/3125=G1(4/5)^7

G1=(393216/3125)/(4/5)^7

G1=600

<u>The first term is given by G1=600</u>

  • Therefore

The General equation is given by

The General equation is given by Gn= 600(4/5)^(n-1)

3rd term (G3)

G3= G1(4/5)^(3-1) where n=3,

=600(4/5)^2

=600(16/25)

=384

<u>Therefore, the 3rd term is given by G3= </u><u>3</u><u>8</u><u>4</u><u>.</u>

<u>I</u><u> </u><u>h</u><u>a</u><u>v</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>m</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>s</u><u>o</u><u>m</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>C</u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u>r</u><u>e</u><u>c</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>i</u><u> </u><u>m</u><u>e</u><u>s</u><u>s</u><u>e</u><u>d</u><u> </u><u>u</u><u>p</u><u> </u><u>s</u><u>o</u><u>m</u><u>e</u><u>w</u><u>h</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>e</u><u>.</u>

Which ratio is equivalent to 4/16 A. 2:4•• B. 6 to 20 C. 8:32 D. 12 to 64 Write the ratio as a unit rate. 286 miles in 5 1/2 hou
NeX [460]
1) Which ratio is equivalent to [tex] \frac{4}{16} [tex]?
[tex] \frac{4}{16} * 2 = \frac{8}{32} [tex], or 8:32.

2) Write the ratio as a unit rate [tex] ( \frac{286miles}{5 \frac{1}{2} hours} ) [tex]
Set the equation up like this:
[tex] \frac{286miles}{5 \frac{1}{2} hours} = \frac{Xmiles}{1 hour}\\
286*1=(5 \frac{1}{2})*x\\
286 = \frac{11x}{2}\\
11x= 572 [tex]
x = 52 [tex] \frac{miles}{hour} [tex]

3) Which typing time is fastest? I answered this earlier, refer to it please refer to it: brainly.com/question/2560190
