Sequence: 5/2, 5/4, 5/8, 5/16
a8=?
a1=5/2
a2=5/4
a3=5/8
a4=5/16
a2/a1=(5/4)/(5/2)=(5/4)*(2/5)=(5*2)/(4*5)=2/4=1/2
a3/a2=(5/8)/(5/4)=(5/8)*(4/5)=(5*4)/(8*5)=4/8=1/2
a4/a3=(5/16)/(5/8)=(5/16)*(8/5)=(5*8)/(16*5)=8/16=1/2
Ratio: r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3→r=1/2
an=a1*r^(n-1)
a1=5/2, r=1/2
an=(5/2)*(1/2)^(n-1)
an=(5/2)*[1^(n-1)/2^(n-1)]
an=(5/2)*[1/2^(n-1)]
an=(5*1)/[2*2^(n-1)]
an=5/2^(1+n-1)
an=5/2^n
n=8→a8=5/2^8
a8=5/256
Answers:
The formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence is an=5/2^n
a8=5/256
Answer:
h = 12x^5y^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a parallelogram is found using A = b*h. Substitute the values given and solve for h.
A = b*h
36x^6 y^5 = 3xy^2 * h
36x^6 y^5 ÷ 3xy^2 = h
12x^5y^3 = h
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 the deck is red cards.
1/4 of the deck is spades.
There are no spades that are red cards, so the probability of drawing a red card or a spade at random from a well-shuffled deck is ...
1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4
Answer:
X=84
Step-by-step explanation:
180(the sum of the interior triangle angles) - [(180-130)+(180-134)]
