Answer:

f(n) = 2 × 3^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write an explicit rule for a geometric function, you need to know the common ratio; you can find the common ratio by dividing two consecutive terms:

6 ÷ 2 = 3, 18 ÷ 6 = 3, 54 ÷ 18 = 3, etc..

Now you know the common ratio is 3. At this point you can write your explicit function following the rule f(n) = [1st term] × [common ratio]^(n-1):

f(n) = 2 × 3^(n-1)

Multiply each number by 3.

2 (x 3) is 6. 6 x 3 is 18, 18 x 3 is 54, 54 x 3 is 162.

Hope this helps!

How do I solve this
hichkok12 [17]
You wanna find a common denominator so put the problem like this

3 1/3.< You wanna take 3 (denominator)
And times it
By 5 then you wanna take the 5. - 2 2/5.< (deniminator) and times it by 3.
____ Your common denominator is 15

now it will look like this

3 1/15

-2 2/15
———-

Now subtract. You will need to borrow 1 from 3 since you cant subtract 2 by 1 so the 3 will become a 2 and the 1 will be come 11 and here you can subtract so this will be your answer.

2 11/15

-2 2/15
-———-
0 9/15

Thats your official answer 9/15 hope I helped :)

Can the formula F=ma be a direct variation equation? If so, which variable would have to be held constant?
ANEK [815]
Yes it can be a direct variation.  it follows the form y = kx
The only variable that cannot be held constant is F, but we can hold the mass constant and vary the acceleration OR we can hold the acceleration constant and vary the mass.  Either one would work, but the easiest would be to vary the mass and hold the acceleration constant since we are all pulled by the same action gravity
