Answer:

9 × 2^(13)

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

the nth term is : An =A1 × r^(n-1)

a common ratio is : r and A1 the first term

in this exercice : r= -3-(-7)36/18 = 18/9 =2 A1 = 9

when : n =14 you have the 14rd term A14

A14 = 9 × 2^(14-1) = 9 × 2^(13)

Ivan and Tanya share £150 in the ratio 4: 1<br>Work out how much more Ivan gets compared to Tanya.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Ivan got £90 more than Tanya.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ivan and Tanya share the amount £150 in the ratio of 4 : 1

Amount received by Ivan = $150\times \frac{4}{(4+1)}$

= $150\times \frac{4}{5}$

= £120

Similarly, amount received by Tanya = $150\times \frac{1}{(4+1)}$

= £30

Difference in their amounts = 120 - 30

= £90

Therefore, Ivan got £90 more than Tanya.
