Answer:

± 60

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = a₁ * rⁿ⁻¹

a₇ = 30 = a₁ * r⁷⁻¹ = a₁ * r⁶     (1)

a₅ = 120 = a₁ * r⁵⁻¹ = a₁ * r⁴     (2)

(1)/(2): 30/120 = 1/4 = r²

r = ± 1/2   or ± 0.5

a₁ = a₇/r⁶ = 30/0.5⁶ = 1920

a₆ = 1920 * (± 1/2)⁶⁻¹ = 1920 * ± 1/32 = ± 60

To solve these type of problems is to simply invert the number after the division sign and multiply

2 * \frac{7}{2} = \frac{2}{1} *\frac{7}{2} = \frac{2*7}{1*2} = \frac{14}{2} = 7

If AB=48 and BC=22, then AC=?
alexandr1967 [171]

If A, B and C are collinear, then

1) if B is between A and C:

AC = AB + BC

AC = 48 + 22 = 70

2) if C is between A and B:

AB = AC + BC

48 = AC + 22 |-22

AC = 26

3) if A is between B and C:

BC = AB + AC

22 = 48 + AC |-48

AC = - 26 < 0 FALSE

Answer:

if B is between A and C, then AC = 70

if C is between A and B, then AC = 26
