What is the recursive formula of the geometric sequence 1/2,3/4,9/8,27/16

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive geometric formula has the pattern:

A_n=A_{n-1}*r where r is the common ratio. Before we write the formula, we need to find the value for r. This r value has to be the same between each consecutive number in the series. Because it's geometric, r is multiplied in (whereas it's added in if the sequence is arithmetic). To get from 1/2 to 3/4 we find the r value in this way:

\frac{x}{2}=\frac{3}{4} where x/2 is the same as 1/2 x. Cross multiply to get 4x = 6 and x = 3/2. That means that if r is 3/2, then we can multiply every term in that sequence by 3/2 to get to the next term in line. 3/4 times 32 is 9/8. Therefore, r = 3/2 and the formula will be:

A_n=A_{n-1}*\frac{3}{2}

What will be the new coordinate of vertex B if the triangle is dilated with a center at the origin by a scale factor of 1/3
a_sh-v [17]

You must observe the distances from the center of the dilation at point A to the other points B, C and D. The dilation image will be 1/3 of each of these distances. AB = 6, so A'B' = 2. AD = 9, so A'D' = 3.

The width of a rectangle is 3.4 feet. The perimeter is 12.6 feet what is the length
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

the answer is 2.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture a rectangle, if one side is 3.4 then the other side 3.4. Add those two togerther gives you 6.8. Now you can subtract 6.8 from the perimeter which is 12.6 then that gives you 5.8. Then you split the 5.8 which give you 2.90 which is the length of the rectangle. So if you label all the sides of the rectangle like this 3.4 + 3.4 + 2.90 + 2.90 = 12.6
