#20- well the answer that i got was 5 but 4 was closer to 5 so yea.
i sure hope this helps!
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of a geometric series is:
a_n = a₁ (r)^(n-1)
where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Here, we have:
40 = a₁ (r)^(4-1)
160 = a₁ (r)^(6-1)
40 = a₁ (r)^3
160 = a₁ (r)^5
If we divide the two equations:
4 = r^2
r = 2
Now substitute into either equation to find a₁:
40 = a₁ (2)^3
40 = 8 a₁
a₁ = 5
I got 20,737 but I could be wrong so I will attach my algorithm and work.
Answer:
We can take 2 plates , 3 plates or 6 plates.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dozen = 12 numbers
Total number of cookies = 42
Each plate has to get atleast 7 cookies ,all the plates should have the same number of cookies and also the number of plates must be greater than or equal to 2.
- If we take 2 plates , there can be 21 cookies in each.
- If we take 3 plates , there can be 14 cookies in each.
- If we take 6 plates , there can be 7 cookies in each.
These are the 3 possible cases.
Since there cannot be broken pieces, no other combination is possible.
