Explanation:
A sequence is a list of numbers.
A <em>geometric</em> sequence is a list of numbers such that the ratio of each number to the one before it is the same. The common ratio can be any non-zero value.
<u>Examples</u>
- 1, 2, 4, 8, ... common ratio is 2
- 27, 9, 3, 1, ... common ratio is 1/3
- 6, -24, 96, -384, ... common ratio is -4

<u>General Term</u>
Terms of a sequence are numbered starting with 1. We sometimes use the symbol a(n) or an to refer to the n-th term. The general term of a geometric sequence, a(n), can be described by the formula ...
a(n) = a(1)×r^(n-1) . . . . . n-th term of a geometric sequence
where a(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio. The above example sequences have the formulas ...
- a(n) = 2^(n -1)
- a(n) = 27×(1/3)^(n -1)
- a(n) = 6×(-4)^(n -1)
You can see that these formulas are exponential in nature.

<u>Sum of Terms</u>
Another useful formula for geometric sequences is the formula for the sum of n terms.
S(n) = a(1)×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . sum of n terms of a geometric sequence
When |r| < 1, the sum converges as n approaches infinity. The infinite sum is ...
S = a(1)/(1-r)

ANSWER
3x+4y=10 …………..(1)
2x−2y=2 (or) x−y=1 …………(2)
(1) ⇒(3x+4y=10)1
(2) ⇒(x−y=1)3
_____________________
3x+4y=10
3x−3y=3
_____________________
7y=7
∴y=1
Put y=1 in (1) we get 3x+4×1=10
3x=10−4=6
∴x=36=2
Hence x=2,y=1.
which one ?
the bottom or the top or is this a trick
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 0.3 is a decimal and 18 is a whole number.
0.3 = 3/10 which is 30%
Answer:
10/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply the denominator and the numerator by 2 and wha la you get 10/16 hope it helps!
