4 0

Answer:

512

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the ratio between the second term and the first term is equal to the ratio between the third term and the second term.

(m² + 4) / m = 16m / (m² + 4)

Solve:

(m² + 4)² = 16m²

m² + 4 = 4m

m² − 4m + 4 = 0

(m − 2)² = 0

m = 2

The first three terms of the geometric sequence are therefore 2, 8, 32.

The common ratio is 4, and the first term is 2.  So the 5th term is:

a = 2 (4)⁵⁻¹

a = 512

When the volume of a gas is
Fudgin [204]

Answer: The initial volume is 593.76mL

Step-by-step explanation:

As you do not say anithing about the pressure, i guess that the pressure remains constant.

If the gas is an ideal gas, we have:

P*V = n*R*T

where P is pressure, n is number of moles and R is a constant.

Now, initially we have:

P*Vi = n*R*315°C

finally we have:

P*825mL = n*R*452°C

Now we can take the quiotient of those two equations and get:

(P*Vi)/(P*852mL) = (n*R*315°C)/( n*R*452°C)

Now we have:

Vi/852mL = 315/452

Vi =  (315/452)*852mL = 593.76mL

So when we expand the gas at constant pressure, we increase the temperature.

What is the inverse of Y=-5x-7
Pepsi [2]

Answer:y = - 5x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

here m = - 5 and b = - 7, hence

y = - 5x - 7 ← equation of line

A bean plant grows at a constant rate for a month. After 10 days, the plant is 25 centimeters tall. After 20 days, the plant is
wariber [46]
Y = 2x + 5

If you take the height at 10 days, 25 centimeters, after 10 more days the height is 45 centimeters, meaning for those 10 extra days the been plant grown 20 centimeters. Since we're told the plant is growing at a constant rate, this shows the bean plant is growing 2 centimeters per day. We can represent this with y = 2x. (After 10 days, the bean plant will be 20 centimeters, after 20 days, the bean plant will be 40 centimeters, etc.)

However, this is not completely true yet. As you can see, after the first 10 days the plant is not 20 centimeter, it's 25 centimeters. We already know the rate in which the plant is changing, but now we need to find the height that the plant was originally, before it started growing.

After the first 10 days, the plant is 25 centimeters tall. Since we know that the plant is growing 2 centimeters per day, we can subtract 20 from 25 to find the original height of the bean plant.

25 - 20 = 5
The bean plant was originally 5 centimeters.

This makes our final equation y = 2x + 5.
2x is the slope, and 5 is the y intercept.

Hope this helps1!
