What is the common ratio for the geometric sequence?<br><br> 18, 12, 8, 16/3,…

alex41 [277]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A geometric sequence : 18, 12, 8, 16/3,…

Solution :

Each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant in a Geometric Sequence .

In a Geometric Sequence common ratio is denoted by r

$r = \frac{a_{n} }{a_{n-1} }$

for n = 2

$r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} }$

⇒ $r = \frac{12 }{18 }$

⇒ $r = \frac{2 }{3 }$

for n = 3

$r = \frac{a_{3} }{a_{2} }$

⇒ $r = \frac{8 }{12 }$

⇒ $r = \frac{4 }{6 }$

⇒ $r = \frac{2}{3 }$

Thus the common ratio 'r' = 2/3

The width of a rectangle is 5 more than twice the length. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 190 meters ,what is the width of

slega [8]

P=2(l+w)

190=2[(2l+5)+l)
190=4l+10+2l
190=6l+10
180=6l
l=30

190=2(30+w)
190=60+2w
130=2w
w=65

The width of the rectangle is 65.

If the point (x,square root 3/2) is on the unit circle, what. is x?

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

$x=\pm\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

On a unit circle, $(x,y)=(\cos\theta,\sin\theta)$ , so $\sin\theta=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ in this case. If you look at the attached circle, the only time that the y-coordinate is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ is when $x=-\frac{1}{2}$ and $x=\frac{1}{2}$ , which correspond to angles of $\theta=\frac{2\pi}{3}$ and $\theta=\frac{\pi}{3}$ respectively
