The 6th term of a gp is -2/29,and it's first term is 18.what is the common ratio​

Mathematics

Answer:

-0.329

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Geometric ratio is

an = ar^n - 1

Where

a = First term = 18

r = Common ratio = ?

n = Number of term= 6

Hence

a6 = 18 × r^6-1

From the question

a6 = -2/29

Hence:

-2/29 = 18 × r^6-1

-2/29 = 18 × r⁵

Divide both sides by 18

-2/29 ÷ 18 = 18 × r⁵/18

-2/29 × 1/18 = r⁵

r⁵ = -1/261

Take the fifth root of both sides

⁵√(r⁵) = ⁵√(-1/261)

r = -0.3286032834

Approximately = -0.329

Therefore, Common ratio = -0.329

Ryan planted flowers in a rectangular garden. The width of the garden is left parenthesis x minus 5 right parenthesis(x−5) feet
Nookie1986 [14]

。☆✼★ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━  ☾  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ★✼☆。

- The equation :

Area = length x width

- Substitute the values in :

Area = (x - 5)(x - 5 + 22)

(Note : the 'x' is for the algebraic expression x in the example above)

- Now you have to simplify the second parenthesis:

Area = (x - 5)(x + 17)

- Now expand :

Area = x^2 + 17x - 5x - 85

- Simplify by collecting like terms :

Area = x^2 + 12x - 85

(Note : x^2 means x squared)

Now you have your answer as:

x^2 + 12x - 85 feet^2

Triangle ABC underwent a sequence of transformations to give triangle A′B′C′. Which transformations could not have taken place?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

C. a rotation 180° clockwise about the origin followed by a reflection across the line y = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the coordinate of A in triangle ABC is A(x, y)

A) If there is a reflection across line y = x, the new coordinate is at A'(y, x).

If a reflection across the line y = -x is then followed, the new coordinate is at A"(-x, -y)

B) If there is a reflection across line x axis, the new coordinate is at A'(x, -y).

If a reflection across the line y axis is then done, the new coordinate is at

A"(-x, -y)

C) If there is a rotation 180° clockwise about the origin, the new coordinate is at A'(-x, -y).

If a reflection across the line y = x is then followed, the new coordinate is at A"(-y, -x)

D) B) If there is a reflection across line y axis, the new coordinate is at A'(-x, y).

If a reflection across the line x axis is then done, the new coordinate is at

A"(-x, -y)

Since only option C has a different result from the remaining options, hence option C would not five triangle A'B'C'
