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

What is the slope of (1,2) and (3,2)
sweet [91]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,2) ; (3,2)

slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

           = ( 2-2 )/( 3 - 1) = 0

So, the line is parallel to x-axis and its slope is 0

PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ANSWER THIS
postnew [5]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a.y^{3} +3y^{2} -3 ) = (ay^{2} +(4a+3)y +4(4a+3))(y-4) +64a+45

so A = 64a +45

(2y^{3} -5y+a =(2y^{2} +8y +27)(y-4) +108 +a

so B = 108 +a

2A-B=0--> 2(64a+45)-108-a=0--> a =18/127
