Answer:

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following in a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.

nth term of a sequence = ar^n-1

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

r = a3/a2 = a4/a3

r = 16/2 = 128/16

r = 8

a2 = ar

2 = 8a

a = 2/8

a = 1/4

The nth term by substituting the parameters will be;

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

natima [27]

Answer:

12.5r + 200 = 12.5*2r

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

Rate of Hoppertunity = r

Rate of Dortmund = 2r as it is twice as fast

<h3>Solution</h3>

Let the distance Hoppertunity runs be d, then the distance Dortmund runs is d + 200 m

Since it took 12.5 seconds Dortmund to catch Hoppertunity, it can be expressed as:

  • d = 12.5r for Hoppertunity
  • d + 200 =12.5*2r for Dortmund

<u>By replacing d in the second equation, we get:</u>

  • 12.5r + 200 = 12.5*2r

<u>Soving</u>:

  • 12.5r = 200
  • r = 200/12.5
  • r = 16 m/sec

Hoppertunity's rate is 16 m/sec

Dortmund's rate is 32 m/sec

What is the perimeter of quadrilateral A' B' C' D'?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

14.2 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

The second shape is given to confuse you and is not actually necessary.

To work out the perimeter of an irregular shape you simply add up the lengths of each side. The shape you have here is an irregular quadrilateral as it has four corners and no recognisable/coarrale organisation.

1.4units + 2.2units + 4.5units +6.1units = 14.2 units.

I hope this helps :)

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday through Thursday is 4 days. Wendy worked 7 hours for each of these days or 7(4) = 28 hours. She worked a total of 32 hours. So 32- 28 = 4 hours on Friday.
