Answer:

<h3>0.8</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the formula for the geometric series expressed as;

\sum \left \{ {3} \atop {1}} \right 1.3(0.8)^{n-1}

The nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as;

T_n = ar^{n-1}\\

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

Comparing both equations;

0.8^{n-1} = r^{n-1}\\Cancel \ the \ powers\\0.8 = r\\r = 0.8\\

Hence the value of r of the geometric series is 0.8

Two ships leave the same port in different directions, forming a 120° angle between them. One ship travels 70 mi. and the other
kondaur [170]

Answer : Distance between the ships to the nearest miles = 106.03 ≈ 106 mi.

Explanation :

Since we have shown in the figure below :

a=70 mi.

b=52 mi.

c=x mi.

\text{Since two ships leaves the same port in different directions forming a }120\textdegree\text{angle between them.}

So, we use the cosine rule , which states that

 c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab.cosC\\\\x^2=70^2+52^2-2\times 70\times 52\times cos(120\textdegree)\\\\x^2=4900+2704-7280\times (-0.5)\\\\x^2=7604+3640\\\\x^2=11244\\\\x=\sqrt{11244}\\\\x=106.03

So, c = x= 106.03 mi.

Hence, distance between the ships to the nearest miles = 106.03 ≈ 106 mi.

Briefly describe scientific notation. how is it useful for writing large and small​ numbers? how is it useful for making​ approx
Alenkasestr [34]
Scientific notation, also called pattern or notation in exponential form, is a way of writing numbers that accommodate values too large (100000000000) or small (0.00000000001) to be written in a conventional manner.

 The use of this notation is based on powers of 104
 Example:
 Big numbers:
 100000000000 = 1 * 10 ^ {11}&#10;
 Small numbers:
 0.00000000001 = 1 * 10 ^{-11}

 However, in areas such as physics and chemistry, scientific notation is important to make approximations such as:
 mass of a proton
 mass of an electron and others.
