This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

For what value of a is the volume of the tetrahedron formed by the coordinate planes and the plane (x/a) + (y/10) + (z/6) = 1 equal to 10?

Answer: the value of a is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Volume of tetrahedron bounded by plane (x/a) + (y/10) + (z/6) = 1

and coordinate plane is; V = 1/6|abc|

(x/a) + (y/10) + (z/6) = 1

volume = 10

so

10 = 1/6 | a × 10 × 6 |

60 = a × 10 × 6

60 = 60a

a = 60 / 60

a = 1

Therefore the value of a is 1

Can someone explain what geometric sequences are?
Fed [463]

Explanation:

A sequence is a list of numbers.

A <em>geometric</em> sequence is a list of numbers such that the ratio of each number to the one before it is the same. The common ratio can be any non-zero value.

<u>Examples</u>

  • 1, 2, 4, 8, ... common ratio is 2
  • 27, 9, 3, 1, ... common ratio is 1/3
  • 6, -24, 96, -384, ... common ratio is -4

___

<u>General Term</u>

Terms of a sequence are numbered starting with 1. We sometimes use the symbol a(n) or an to refer to the n-th term. The general term of a geometric sequence, a(n), can be described by the formula ...

  a(n) = a(1)×r^(n-1) . . . . . n-th term of a geometric sequence

where a(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio. The above example sequences have the formulas ...

  • a(n) = 2^(n -1)
  • a(n) = 27×(1/3)^(n -1)
  • a(n) = 6×(-4)^(n -1)

You can see that these formulas are exponential in nature.

__

<u>Sum of Terms</u>

Another useful formula for geometric sequences is the formula for the sum of n terms.

  S(n) = a(1)×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . sum of n terms of a geometric sequence

When |r| < 1, the sum converges as n approaches infinity. The infinite sum is ...

  S = a(1)/(1-r)
