Answer:

a₆ ≈ 25.284

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is

8 ÷ 6 = \frac{32}{3} ÷ 8 = \frac{4}{3}

This indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term

a_{n} = a₁ r^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 6 and r = \frac{4}{3} , then

a₆ = 6 × (\frac{4}{3}) ^{5} = 6 × \frac{1024}{243} = \frac{6(1024)}{243} ≈ 25.284 ( to the nearest thousandth )

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a geometric sequence.

the common ratio or factor is 4/3.

I got this by simply trying to get from the 2nd to the 3rd term.

8×x = 32/3

24x = 32

x = 32/24 = 16/12 = 8/6 = 4/3

s1 = 6

s2 = s1 × 4/3 = 6 × 4/3 = 24/3 = 8

s3 = s2 × 4/3 = s1 × 4/3 × 4/3 = 6 × 16/9 = 2 × 16/3 = 32/3

sn = s1 × (4/3)^(n-1)

s6 = 6 × (4/3)⁵ = 6 × 1024/243 = 2 × 1024/81 = 2048/81 =

= 25.284

Umm it’s to question just label it a and b

A) Scale of map is 1: 30,000

This is assuming that it meant 1 centimetre = 30,000 metres, for it gives no other information.

Multiply 1 with 30,000: 30,000 x `1 = 30,000

30,000 metres is your answer.

B) Scale is 1 inch: 6 miles. You are given 2.5 inches.

Remember that 1 inch = 6 miles.

Multiply 2.5 to both sides: (2.5) * 1 inch = (2.5) * 6 miles

2.5 inch = 2.5 * 6 miles

2.5 inch = 15 miles

15 miles is your answer.

Find the area of a parallelogram whose base is 12cm and altitude is 8cm. Also find the other base of its corresponding altitude
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of parallelogram = base * height

                                    = 12 * 8

                                    = 96 cm²

Area of parallelogram = 96

base * height = 96

          base = 96/height

          base = 96/16

         base = 6 cm

A 30cm board is cut down to be 25.5 cm. What is the percent decrease in length?
zmey [24]
Okie, so percent decrease is the amount loss divided by the original number and multiplied by 100 to find the percent. This is because you are finding the amount loss in terms of the total amount - percent basically.
The amount loss : 4 feet
4 feet/ 12 feet = .3333 (ratio of how much cut) multiply by 100 --> 33.3% decrease. From 12 feet to 8 feet is a 33.3 % decrease. I hope this helps :-)
