Find an explicit rule for the nth term of the sequence.

The second and fifth terms of a geometric sequence are 20 and 1280, respectively.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

in a geometric sequence there is a constant factor x that is multiplied with every previous term to create the next one.

a2 = 20

a5 = 1280 = a2×x×x×x = a2×x³ = 20x³

64 = x³

x = 4

=> a1 = 5

therefore

an = an-1×4 =

Answers

Answer:

The base cost of the camera, exclusive of sales tax, is $160.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up this equation and solve for x, which is the cost of the camera:

$3.20 = $0.02x [0.02 = 2%]

Solve the equation by dividing $3.20 by 0.02. The answer is $160.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan(51) = opposite / adjacent

The adjacent side makes up the reference angle (51o)

The opposite side is not part of the reference angle

adjacent side = x

opposite side = 16

Tan(51) = 16 / x              Multiply both sides by x

x * Tan(51) = 16            Divide by tan 51

x = 16 / tan(51)

tan(51) = 1.2349

x = 16 / 1.2349

x = 12.96

Answer:

12.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan(51) = opposite / adjacent

The adjacent side makes up the reference angle (51o)

The opposite side is not part of the reference angle

adjacent side = x

opposite side = 16

Tan(51) = 16 / x            

Multiply both sides by x

x * Tan(51) = 16        

Divide by tan 51

x = 16 / tan(51)

tan(51) = 1.2349

x = 16 / 1.2349

x = 12.9

A train travels a distance of 60 km at uniform speed. If the speed of the train was reduced by 10 kmh-1, the time taken to travel the 60km will increase by 1/2h. Find the speed of the train at the beginning.

Answers

Answer:

Initial speed is 32 m/s

At uniform speed, acceleration is 0, (a = 0).

When speed reduced, (v - u) = 2.78 ms-¹, t = 1800 sec, s = 60 ,000 metres.

From first equation of motion:

[tex]{ \boxed{ \bf{v = u + at}}} \\ { \tt{(v - u) = at}}[/tex]

substitute:

[tex]{ \tt{2.78 = (a \times 1800)}} \\ { \tt{acceleration = 0.0015 \: {ms}^{ - 2} }}[/tex]

from second equation of motion:

[tex]{ \boxed{ \bf{s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2} }}}[/tex]

substitute:

[tex]{ \tt{60000 = 1800u + ( \frac{1}{2} \times 0.0015 \times {1800}^{2}) }} \\ { \tt{1800u = 57570}} \\ { \tt{u = 32 \: m {s}^{ - 1} }}[/tex]

-3 + 3x - x - 7x + 5x + 2x

Answer:

n = {9, 10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation be:

n² - 19n + 91 = k²

Multiply both sides by 4 and complete the square:

4n² - 76n + 364 = 4k²(2n)² - 2(2n)(19) + 19² + 3 = 4k²(2n - 19)² - 4k² = - 3(2n + 2k - 19)(2n - 2k - 19) = -3

Since -3 = 1(-3) = (-1)*3, we have following options:

1)

2n + 2k - 19 = 12n - 2k - 19 = -3

Eliminate k by adding up equations:

4n - 38 = -24n = 36n = 9

2)

2n + 2k - 19 = -12n - 2k - 19 = 3

Eliminate k by adding up equations:

4n - 38 = 24n = 40n = 10

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Heron's formula finds the area of any triangle.

Area = sqrt(s*(s - a)*(s-b)*(s-c) )

s = (a + b + c)/2

a = 8

b = 16

c = 12

s = 36/2 = 18

s-a = 18 - 8 = 10

s-b = 18 - 16 = 2

s-c = 18 - 12 = 6

Area = sqrt(18*10*2*6) = sqrt(2160)

Area = 12*sqrt(15)

Area = 46.4758

Now x is easily found. It is the altitude to 16

Area = 1/2 16 * h

46.4758 * 2 / 16 = h

h = 3*sqrt(15)/2

h= 5.81
