Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric Sequence formula for general term:

an = a1(r^n-1)

a1 = 4 × (-5)^1-1

a1 = 4

r = -5

Summation formula for geometric sequence :

Sn = a1 ( 1 - r^n / 1 - r )

...<em>take n from the top of the summation.</em>

= 4 ( 1 -(-5)^6 / 1 -(-5)

= -10416.

Approximately how long is a leg of an isosceles right triangle that has a hypotenuse of length 11.31

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Leg of an isosceles right triangle is 7.99 long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the hypotenuse =11.31

To find:

Length of the leg of an isosceles right triangle =?

Solution:

According to Pythagorean's Theorem, we have

$a^2 +b^2 = c^2$ -----------------------------(1)

Here were are given as isosceles triangle, so the two sides will be of same length

So equation 1 can be rewritten as

$a^2 +a^2 = c^2$

$2a^2 = c^2$

Substituting the value of hypotenuse

$2a^2 = (11.31)^2$

$2a^2 = 127.91$

$a^2 = \frac{127.91}{2}$

$a^2 =63.955$

$a = \sqrt{63.955}$

a = 7.99

Write your own explicit formula. List the first 4 terms and solve for the 10th term using the formula. (show your work)

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

$a_n = 3(n + 4)$

First term: n = 1

$a_1 = 3(1 + 4) = 15$

Second term: n = 2

$a_2 = 3(2 + 4) = 18$

Third term: n = 3

$a_3 = 3(3 + 4) = 21$

Fourth term: n = 4

$a_4 = 3(4 + 4) = 24$

Tenth term: n = 10

$a_{10} = 3(10 + 4) = 42$
