The ratio is common, so you could write:
a1 * r^4 = a^5 (you do r^4 because there are 4 times you need to multiply by the ratio to get from a1 to a5)
Plug in the values:
3 * r^4 = 48
Divide by 3:
r^4 = 16
Take the fourth root of both sides:
r = 2
The common ratio is 2.
3x+2y=6 -
8x+2y=2
_________
-5x=4
x=-4/5
-2.4+2y=6
y=8.4
Answer:
-4.375
Step-by-step explanation:
t = mr^2/3
Divide both sides by r^2/3
m = t / r^2/3
