Which sequence is geometric and has 14 as its fifth term and 12 as the common ratio?

1 answer:

7 0

Geometric sequence is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
an=nth erm
a1=first term
r=common ratio

5th term=14
a5=a1(12)^(5-1)=15

a1(12)^4=15
a1(20736)=15
divide both sides by 20736
a1=15/20736=5/6912
geometric sequence is
an=(5/6912)(12)^(n-1)

cupoosta [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\because \: sin \: ( - \theta) = - sin \: \theta \\ \\ \therefore \: sin \: ( - 120 \degree) = - sin \: 120 \degree \\ \\ = - sin \: ( 180\degree- 60 \degree) \\ \\ = - sin \: 60 \degree \\ \\ = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} \\ \\ \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \: sin \: ( - 120 \degree) =- \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} }}$
