Find all geometric sequences such that the sum of the first two terms is 24 and the sum of the first three terms is 26.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The nth term Tn = -8(-1/4)^(n-1) or Tn = 6(1/3)^(n-1) can be used to find all geometric sequences

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first three terms be a/r, a, ar... where a is the first term and r is the common ratio of the geometric sequence.

If the sum of the first two term is 24, then a/r + a = 24...(1)

and the sum of the first three terms is 26.. then a/r+a+ar = 26...(2)

Substtituting equation 1 into 2 we have;

24+ar = 26

ar = 2

a = 2/r ...(3)

Substituting a = 2/r into equation 1 will give;

(2/r))/r+2/r = 24

2/r²+2/r = 24

(2+2r)/r² = 24

2+2r = 24r²

1+r = 12r²

12r²-r-1 = 0

12r²-4r+3r -1 = 0

4r(3r-1)+1(3r-1) = 0

(4r+1)(3r-1) = 0

r = -1/4 0r 1/3

Since a= 2/r then a = 2/(-1/4)or  a = 2/(1/3)

a = -8 or 6

All the geometric sequence can be found by simply knowing the formula for heir nth term. nth term of  a geometric sequence is expressed as

if r = -1/4 and a = -8

Tn = -8(-1/4)^(n-1)

if r = 1/3 and a = 6

Tn = 6(1/3)^(n-1)

The nth term of the sequence above can be used to find all the geometric sequence where n is the number of terms

What is the decay factor in y = 760(0.75)3?

Answers

Answer:

Decay factor is 0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is  

[tex]y=760(0.75)^3[/tex]     ...(1)

The general form of exponential decay function is  

[tex]y=a(1-r)^t[/tex]    ...(2)

where, a is initial amount, t is the time period, r is decay rate and (1-r) is the decay factor.

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

[tex]a=760, t=3, (1-r)=0.75[/tex]

Therefore, the decay factor is 0.75.

Find the volume of prism

Answers

volume is length times width times height

Answer:

The original or the Bigger prism's volume would be 15 x 6 x 10= 900 cubic centimetres given that the smaller prism has not been cut out.

the volume of the cut-out cube would be 6 x 4 x 6= 144 cubic centimetres

so the original volume of the prism is 900 - 144= 756 cubic centimetres

In △XYZ, m∠X = 27° and m∠Y = 48°. Which gives the sides of the triangle in order from shortest to longest?

Answers

Answer:

z, y and x

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, to answer this question, what we must know is that the side facing the largest angle is the largest while the side facing the smallest is the smallest.

What i’m saying in essence is that the bigger the angle faced, the larger the side.

Now since we have 3 angles in a triangle that adds up to 180

we have 27 and 48 already, the third side would be 180-27-48 = 105

So which side faces which angle?

Let’s have a diagrammatic representation of the said triangle.

Check this in the attachment please

The longest side is thus z, followed by y and lastly x

The measure of the angle from shortest to longest will be ∠z, ∠y, and ∠x.

What is angle measurement?

An angle measure is the measurement of the angle created by two rays or arms at a shared vertex in geometry. A protractor is used to measure angles in degrees (°).

Given data;

m∠X = 27°

m∠Y = 48°

The sum of the angle of the triangle is 180°

m∠X+m∠Y+m∠Z = 180°

27° +48° + m∠Z  =  180°

m∠Z = 105°

The order of the angle measurement;

m∠Z > m∠Y > m∠X

Hence, the measure of the angle from shortest to longest will be ∠z, ∠y, and ∠x.

Answer:

C. The answer is correct

Step-by-step Explanation:

One of the rules that applies when simplifying radical expressions, is that, only like radicals can be added together or subtracted from each other. In other words, the radicand, which is the number inside the "√" must be the same for two or more radicals to be added together or subtracted from each other.

In the expression given in the question, step 1 and step 2 are correct, as well as the final answer.

The final answer is correct because only like radicals can be added as 3√19 and 8√38 are unlike radicals. Their radicands, √19 and √38, are not the same, hence, the radicals do not need to be added.

The answer "3√19 + 8√38" is correct.

Answers

Answer:

12.5 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on the mensuration of flat shapes

Given

perimeter of lawn = 278 ft

width of lawn = 64 ft

1. we need to solve for the length of the lawn

2. we also  we need to solve for the area of the lawn

perimeter of lawn= 2(width) + 2(length)

substituting our data we have

let the length be x

[tex]= 278= 2(64) + 2(x)\\\=278= 128+2x\\\=278-128= 2x\\\=150=2x\\\\\x=\frac{150}{2} \\\x= 75ft[/tex]

the length is 75 ft

the area of the lawn is [tex]75*64= 4800ft^2[/tex]

if a bag will cover[tex]384ft^2[/tex]

to cover the lawn we will need

[tex]\frac{4800}{384} \\=12.5 bags[/tex]
