Find a formula for the 4th term of the following G.P.S a) 1, 2,4......... b)50, 20, 8......... Pls explain very well.. Thank you.

Answers

Answer 1
The nth term is (n-1)^2

The 4th term is (4-1)^2 = 9
Answer 2

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a geometric sequence is

an = a1 * r^ (n-1)  where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio

The common ratio is  found by taking the second term and dividing it by the first term

a) 1, 2,4.........

a1 = 1

r = 2/1 = 2

an = 1 * ( 2) ^ (n-1)

Let n = 4

a4 = 1 * 2^ (4-1) = 1 * 2^3 = 8

b)50, 20, 8.........

a1 = 50

r = 50/20= 5/2

an = 50 * ( 5/2) ^ (n-1)

Let n = 4

a4 = 50 * (5/2)^ (4-1) = 50 * (5/2)^3 = 3125/4

the area of a parallelogram is 48cm².if the two adjacent sides are 8cm and 6cm, find the length of its diagonal .​

Answers

Answer:

10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the shape is a rectangle since it's already stated that it's a parallelogram, and the area is stated, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length

[tex]a^{2} +b^2=c^2[/tex], where c will be the length

isolate c

[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]

[tex]c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

Edwin works at a fast-food restaurant. Every Tuesday, he helps unload a delivery truck. This
table shows how many boxes of hamburger buns and how many boxes of potatoes he
unloaded last Tuesday,
What is the weight of each box?

Answers

Answer:

Each box of buns weighs 18 pounds and each box of potatoes weighs 35 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say each bun box weighs b pounds and each potato box weighs p pounds. For each box of buns, we add b pounds. Therefore, for 40 boxes of buns, we add 40 * b pounds. Similarly, for 35 boxes of potatoes, we add 35 * p pounds.

For Tuesday, the total weight of the buns boxes is equal to 40 * b. The total weight of the potato boxes is equal to 35 * p. Adding these two together, we get the total weight of the boxes to be equal to

40 * b + 35 * p = 1945

For Friday, we can apply similar techniques to get

60 * b + 70 * p = 3530

We therefore have the two equations

40 * b + 35 * p = 1945

60 * b + 70 * p = 3530

One way to solve this would be to convert this into a matrix and use Guass-Jordan Elimination. With the amount of bun boxes representing the first column, the amount of potato boxes representing the second, and the total weight of each day representing the third, we have

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}40&35&1945\\60&70&3530\end{array}\right][/tex]

One thing that we can do here is multiply the first row by -2 and add it to the second. That way, there would be a 0 in the 2nd column in the 2nd row, making an equation of the form

something * b = something else, enabling us to solve for b.

We thus have

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}40&35&1945\\(-40*2+60)&(-35*2+70)&(-1945*2 +3530)\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}40&35&1945\\-20&0&-360\end{array}\right][/tex]

Therefore, we can say that

-20 * b = -360

divide both sides by 20 to isolate b

b = 18

Therefore, each box of bunds weighs 18 pounds. Plugging that into an equation, we have

40 * b + 35 * p = 1945

40 * 18 + 35 * p = 1945

720 + 35 * p = 1945

subtract 720 from both sides to isolate the p and its coefficient

1225 = 35 * p

divide both sides by 35 to isolate p

p = 35

Therefore, each box of potatoes weighs 35 pounds

Find the area. Round to the nearest tenth.
6 ft
3 ft
12.16 ft
9.16 ft

Answers

Answer:

100.5 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the rectangle

A = l*w

A = 12.16 * 6

A =72.96 ft^2

Then find the area of the triangle

A = 1/2 bh

The base is 12 ft - 6ft = 6ft

The height is 9.16 ft

A = 1/2 ( 9.16) * 6

A = 27.48 ft^2

Add them together

27.48+72.96

100.44 ft^2

Round to the nearest tenth

100.5 ft^2

Answer:

[tex]\huge \boxed{\mathrm{100.4 \ ft^2 }}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the shape, we can add the area of the rectangle with the area of the triangle.

Area of rectangle :

base × height

6 ft × 12.16 ft

72.96 ft²

Area of triangle :

base × height × 1/2

(12 ft - 6 ft) × 9.16 ft × 1/2

6ft × 9.16 ft × 1/2

27.48 ft²

Adding the areas.

72.96 ft² + 27.48 ft²

100.44 ft²

≈ 100.4 ft² (rounded to nearest tenth)

A geometric series has a common ratio of (-2) and the first term is 3.
Show that the sum of the first eight positive terms of the series is 65 535.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric series is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a_{1}(r^{n}-1) }{r-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Given a₁ = 3 and r = - 2 , then

3 × - 2 = - 6

- 6 × -2 = 12

12 × - 2 = - 24

- 24 × - 2 = 48

48 × - 2 = - 96

- 96 × - 2 = 192

The positive terms are in a geometric progression

3, 12, 48, 192, ....

with a₁ = 3 and r = 12 ÷ 3 = 48 ÷ 12 = 4 , then

S₈ = [tex]\frac{3(4^{8}-1) }{4-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3(65536-1)}{3}[/tex] = 65536 - 1 = 65535

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine what type of model best fits the given situation: Farmer Joe has 1,000 bushels of corn to sell. Presently the market price for corn is $5.00 a bushel. He expects the market price to increase by $0.15 per week. For each week he waits to sell, he loses ten bushels due to spoilage. A. none of these B. exponential C. quadratic D. linear

Given:

The quantity of corn Farmer Joe has to sell = 1,000 bushels

The present market price for corn = $5.00 a bushel

The amount by which he expects the market price to rise per week =$0.15

The number of bushels lost to spoilage per week = 10

The price of the corn per bushel with time = 5 + 0.15×t

The amount of corn left with time= 1000 - 10×t

Where;

t = Time in minutes

Value of the corn = Amount of corn left × Price of corn

Value of the corn = (1000 - 10×t) × (5 + 0.15×t)

=(1000-10t) × (5+0.15t)

=5,000 + 150t - 50t - 1.5t²

= -1.5t² +100t + 5000

Value of the corn= -1.5t² +100t + 5000.

Answer:

508,780,800 ft³ of rain

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to do the computation, we need to express all the given lengths in feet.

recall that 1 mile = 5280 feet

hence,

width = 7.3 miles = 7.3 x 5280 = 38,544 feet

length = 30 miles = 30 x 5280 = 158,400 feet

also recall that 1 inch = 1/12 feet

hence,

depth of rainfall = 1 inch = 1/12 feet

Volume of rain = width of beach x length of beach x depth of rainfall

= 38,544 x 158,400 x (1/12)

= 508,780,800 ft³ of rain
