Answer:

• let 5.477477477 be x

${ \rm{x = 5.477477477 \: - - - \{eqn(i) \}}}$

• Then let's find 1000x:

${ \rm{1000x = (1000 \times 5.477477477)}} \\ \\ { \rm{1000x = 5477.477477 - - - \{eqn(ii) \}}}$

• let's subtract eqn(i) from eqn(ii):

${ \rm{ \underline{ - \binom{1000x}{x} } = { \underline{ - \binom{5477.477477}{5.477477477} }}}} \\ { \rm{999x = 5472 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: }} \\ \\ { \rm{x = \frac{5472}{999} }}$

Answer: 5472/999

Find the 10th term of geometric sequence 3,15,75,375

Bess [88]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the next term is a constant times the previous term. This constant is determined by dividing the second term by the first, here giving 5. The remaining terms are checked to see that each is 5 times the previous. 75 is 15×5, 375 is 75×5.

Alternately, the nth term is first term times k^(n-1).

Here, that's 3×5^(10-1), 3×5^9=5859375
