Answer:

a_n=100 \left(\dfrac15\right)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of geometric sequence:  a_n=ar^{n-1}

Given:

  • a₁ = 100
  • a₂ = 20
  • a₃ = 4

\implies a_1=a=100

\implies a_2=100 \cdot r=20

\implies a_3=100 \cdot r^2=4

Common ratio:

r=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{4}{20}=\dfrac15

Therefore:

a_n=100 \left(\dfrac15\right)^{n-1}

What is the domain of the function y=tan (x/8)<br> Please Help<br> 15 Points
7nadin3 [17]

1. You have the function y=tan(\frac{x}{8} )

2. You know that y=\frac{sinx}{cosx} with cosx\neq 0, because the division by zero is not defined. So , cosx=0 for \frac{(2n+1)\pi}{2} where n is a integer number.

3. Then, to find the domain of the function given in the problem, you must make \frac{x}{8} \neq \frac{k\pi}{2}  \\ x\neq 4k\pi

Where k is odd number.

4. Therefore:

x\neq 4\pi (2n+1)

5. Finally, the domain is: 4\pi (2n+1)

The answer is: 4\pi (2n+1)
