Answer:
150 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
100 batches x batches
------------------- = ---------------------
8 hours 12 hours
Using cross products
100 * 12 = 8x
1200 = 8x
Divide by 8
1200/8 = 8x/8
150 = x
Answer:
the common ratio is either 2 or -2.
the sum of the first 7 terms is then either 765 or 255
Step-by-step explanation:
a geometric sequence or series of progression (these are the most common names for the same thing) means that every new term of the sequence is created by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor which is called the common ratio.
so,
a1
a2 = a1×f
a3 = a2×f = a1×f²
a4 = a3×f = a1×f³
the problem description here tells us
a3 = 4×a1
and from above we know a3 = a1×f².
so, f² = 4
and therefore the common ratio = f = 2 or -2 (we need to keep that in mind).
again, the problem description tells us
a2 + a4 = 30
a1×f + a1×f³ = 30
for f = 2
a1×2 + a1×2³ = 30
2a1 + 8a1 = 30
10a1 = 30
a1 = 3
for f = -2
a1×-2 + a1×(-2)³ = 30
-10a1 = 30
a1 = -3
the sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is
sn = a1×(1 - f^(n+1))/(1-f) for f <>1
so, for f = 2
s7 = 3×(1 - 2⁸)/(1-2) = 3×-255/-1 = 3×255 = 765
for f = -2
s7 = -3×(1 - (-2)⁸)/(1 - -2) = -3×(1-256)/3 = -3×-255/3 =
= -1×-255 = 255
Answer:
26.8°
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side of the triangle in which the angle is formed to the hypotenuses side of the triangle. The cosine of the angle gives the ratio of these sides. However, the arc cosine of the ratio gives the angle measured in degrees.
If cos B = 0.8926
then arc cosine 0.8926 which may be expressed as cos-1 0.8926 will give the value of B.
B = cos-1 0.8926
= 26.8°
