Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:
a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number
We are given that a(5)=1/16 and r=1/4 so we can say:
1/16=a(1/4)^(5-1)
1/16=a(1/4)^4
1/16=a/256
256/16=a
16=a
So the initial term is 16 so our formula is:
a(n)=16(1/4)^(n-1)
For the answer to the question above, this question is incomplete. I've answered this question before.
Is it like this?
V = (1/3) * (area of the base) * height
<span>If you have a pyramid with a square base, you just multiply the length of both sides together. For example, if the pyramid was 9 inches on a side, the area of the base is 9 * 9 = 81 sq. inches. </span>
<span>Then you multiply that by the height and finally take 1/3 of the result. For example, if the pyramid was 10 inches high, you multiply 81 sq. inches x 10 inches = 810 cubic inches. But you have to remember to take a third of that result. 810 cubic inches / 3 = 270 cubic inches.
</span>I hope this helps
Answer:
Area of this parallelogram A = base x height = 11 x 6 = 66 (cm2)
Hope this helps!

X^6 because you have to multiply the exponents
Volume of a sphere = (4/3)(pi)r^3
(4/3)(12.3)^3 = 2481.156 pi cm^3
