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

What are the answers ?

Anika [276]

If c = 8 and d = -5:

a) c - 3 = 8 - 3
= 5

b) 15 - c = 15 - 8
= 7

c) 3(c + d) = 3(8 + (-5))
= 3*3
= 9

d) 2c - 4d = 2(8) - 4(-5)
= 16 + 20
= 36

e) d - c^2 = -5 - (8)^2
= -5 - 64
= -69

f) 2d^2 + 5d = 2(-5)^2 + 5(-5)
= 50 - 25
= 25
