Answer:

8th term = 8748 , Sum of 5 terms = 484

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for nth term in an exponential sequence = a r^ (n-1)

Here : n = 4 , ratio r = 3 ; And nth ie 4th number = 108

So,  a r^ (n-1) = nth item implies that → a 3 ^ (4-1) = 108

a 3^3 = 108 →  27 a = 108 → a = 108 / 27 → a = 4

<u>8th</u><u> term </u>= a r^ (n-1) , at  n = 8.  So, = 4 3^(8-1) = 4 3^7 = 4 x 2187 = 8748

Sum of n terms = a [(r^n) -1 ] / [r - 1] → <u>Sum </u><u>5</u><u> </u>terms = 4 [ (3^5)- 1] / [3 - 1]

= 4 [ (243) - 1] / 2 ] = 2 x 242 = 484

Alecsey [184]

Question:

A camel can drink 25 gallons of water in 10 minutes. How many cups of water can the camel drink in 10 minutes?​

Solution:

A)

1 cup = 0.25 quarts.

4 quarts= 1 gallon

Then, according to this information, we get the following table:

B)

Note that 4 quarts= 1 gallon, then 1 gallon is equivalent to 16 cups.

C)

Then, 25 gallons are equivalent to:

25\text{ gallons(}\frac{16\text{ cups}}{1\text{ gallon}}\text{)}=\text{ 400 cups}

D. According to the above information, we obtain that 25 gallons of water are 400 cups .

So that, we can conclude that the correct answer is:

The camel can drink 400 cups of water in 10 minutes
