Answer:
an=1*2.5^(n-1)
=2.5^(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete question below:
What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio? Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence. On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).
Solution
Point (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).
a=1
ar=2.5
ar^2=6.25
From ar and ar^2
r=6.25/2.5
=2.5
r=2.5
an=ar^(n-1)
Therefore, the explicit formula is
an=1*2.5^(n-1)
=2.5^(n-1)

Speed is computed by dividing total distance by total time.
Speed = Total Distance / total time
From the above formula, we can derive the formula of time and distance.
Time = Distance / Speed
Distance = Speed x time
Do you want a ratio? If yes, the ratio is 120:52
