Find the 8th Term for the Geometric Sequence for which a1 - 3 and r = -2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-384

Step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence : every new element is generated by multiplying the previous element always with the same number r.

a(n) = a(n-1) * r

a(n) = a(1) * r^(n-1)

so, a(1) = 3, r = -2

a(8) = ?

a(8) = a(1) * r^7 = 3 * (-2)^7

a negative number to an uneven power is again a negative number.

so, (-2)^7 = -128

3 * -128 = -384 = a(8)

Alja [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2*(length + width)

53 m = 2*(2.3 m +w) . . . . an equation to find the width, w

26.5 m = 2.3 m +w . . . . . divide by 2

24.2 m = w . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2.3 m

The width of the rectangle is 24.2 m

Romashka [77]

Answer:

A and D have whole grid squares that are the same size and aren't over lapping

C has overlapping grid squares making it hard to count

B can't be used to find area because some of the grid squares are different sizes

You still could use B because four of the smaller squares seems to be equivalent to one of the larger squares

Find the average rate of change of the function over the given interval.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Average rate of change = 20.2

Rate of change at the left endpoint :   f' (5) = 4t = 20

Rate of change at the right  endpoint : f' (5.1) = 4*5.1 = 20.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of the function

F(t) = 2t^2 - 1 ,  [ 5,5.1 ]

solution

\frac{f(5.1)-f(5)}{5.1 - 5} = \frac{2*(5.1)^2-1-(2*5^2-1)}{0.1}   = [ 2 ( 26.01 - 25 ) / 0.1 ]

= 2.02 / 0.1 = 20.2

Rate of change at the left endpoint :   f' (5) = 4t = 20

Rate of change at the right  endpoint : f' (5.1) = 4*5.1 = 20.4
