Answer:

common ratio=0.5, a1= 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

r=a3/a2

r=a4/a3

compare both we get:

a3/a2=a4/a3

subtitute a2=0.04 and a4=1

a3/0.04=1/a3

(a3)^2=0.04*1

(a3)^2=0.04

taking square root in both sides

a3=0.02

For r, r=a3/a2

subtitute a3 and a2 above

r=0.02/0.04

r=0.5 common ratio

For a1

r=a2/a1

0.5=0.04/a1

a1=0.04/0.5

a1=0.08

My linear expression y= 5x -3 What is an equivalent to this problem and is it equal​
azamat

Answer:

<h2>5x - y = 3</h2><h2>5x - y - 3 = 0</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x - 3   <em>it's a slope-intercept form</em>

<em />

y = 5x - 3         <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

-5x + y = -3          <em>change the signs</em>

5x - y = 3     <em>it's a standard form</em>

<em />

5x - y = 3          <em>subtract 3 from both sides</em>

5x - y - 3 = 0         <em>it's a general form</em>

What's the property to (x/y)^3=x^3/y^3
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Power of a quotient property

Step-by-step explanation:

It is power of a quotient property, when you have different bases, whose quotient(division) is raised to the same power, it is equal to dividing, each base raised to same power.

Here, x and y are different bases and 3 is the common power to both of them.

In general for any power, say m :

(\frac{x}{y} )^{m} = \frac{x^{m} }{y^{m}}

Because, (\frac{x}{y} )^{m} = \frac{x}{y} \times \frac{x}{y} \times\frac{x}{y}.... m times

And, (\frac{x}{y} )^{3} = \frac{x}{y} \times \frac{x}{y} \times\frac{x}{y}

i.e (\frac{x}{y} )^{3} = \frac{x^{3} }{y^{3}}
