If the sixth term in a geometric sequence is 1/625, and the common ratio is 1/5, find the explicit formula of the sequence.

Question 21 options:

an=(15)n−1for n ≥ 1


an=(5)⋅(15)n−1for n ≥ 2


an=(1)⋅(15)n−1for n ≥ 2


an=(5)⋅(15)n−1for n ≥ 1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

aₙ = 5*(1/5)^(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive relation for a geometric sequence is:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁*R

where R is the common ratio.

We could write this in a general form as:

aₙ = a₁*(R)^(n - 1)

where a₁ is the first term of the sequence.

In this case we know that:

R = 1/5

And that:

a₆ = 1/625

Then we can replace these values in the above relation to get:

a₆ = (1/625) = a₁*(1/5)^(6 - 1) = a₁*(1/5^5) = a₁*(1/3125)

1/625 = a1*(1/3125)

(3125/625) = a1 = 5

Then the formula will be:

aₙ = 5*(1/5)^(n - 1)

Representative: “I am planning to attend a company-paid conference. My charges will include $412.00 for airfare, $378.00 for conference registration, and $210.00 for food.” Supervisor: “Please submit an expense form for a total of __________ when you return.”

Answers

The answer is 1,000 dollars. :)

When he returns, the total will be "$1,000".

Given charges are:

For airfare,

= $412.00

For conference registration,

= $378.00

For food,

= $210.00

The total charges will be:

= [tex]Airfare+Conference \ registration+Food[/tex]

= [tex]412+378+210[/tex]

= [tex]1,000[/tex] ($)

3. To make purple frosting, you start with white frosting.
Then you add 2 drops of red food coloring and 3 drops of
blue food coloring. If 4 red drops come out with the first
squeeze, how many blue drops should you add?

Answers

Answer:  6 drops of blue

==================================================

Explanation:

We basically mix red and blue to get purple. The ratio needed is 2 parts red, and 3 parts blue. We can shorten this by writing 2:3

Note how we can double both parts of the ratio to get 4:6, showing that 4 drops of red correspond to 6 drops of blue, which is the answer we want.

------------------

Another approach:

x = some positive real number

(2 parts red)/(3 parts blue) = (4 parts red)/(x parts blue)

2/3 = 4/x

2x = 3*4 .... cross multiply

2x = 12

x = 12/2 .... divide both sides by 2

x = 6

So 6 drops of blue go with 4 drops of red.

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a formula using the value of the angle but I don't remember it so the most easy way is:

A circle has an angle of 360°

so our section has an angle of 60

and we know that 360=60*6

so the area of the circle we divide it by 6 and we get the area we want

[tex]A=\pi r^2\\\\A=\pi (8)^2\\\\A=64\pi[/tex]

O 6.5 jars
09 jars
O 12 jars

Answers

Answer:

9 pint sized jars

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two pints to the quart. 2x4=8, so there is 8 pints per 4 quarts. If one pint is the same as half a quart, we can write a pint as 0.5 quarts. So, there are 9 pints to 4.5 quarts.

Answer:

9 jars

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 2 pints in a quart so 4.5x2=9

Answer:

  A: x = -1  and  y = 3

  B: x = 12  and  y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, you can add the opposite of the constant to find the variable.

Equation A

  (x +yi) +(4 -7i) = (3 -4i)

  (x +yi) +(4 -7i) -(4 -7i) = (3 -4i) -(4 -7i) . . . . . add -(4-7i) to both sides

  x +yi = (3 -4) +(-4-(-7))i = -1 +3i

  x = -1  and  y = 3

__

Equation B

  (x +yi) -(-6 +14i) = (18 +2i)

  (x +yi) -(-6 +14i) +(-6 +14i) = (18 +2i) +(-6 +14i) . . . . . add (-6 +14i) to both sides

  x + yi = (18 -6) +(2 +14)i = 12 +16i

  x = 12  and  y = 16

Bea's catering charges $3 per person and a $60 clean-up fee to cater banquets. Write an equation to find the number of students (n) that could attend the French clubs banquet if they had a budgeted $200 for catering

Answers

Answer:

The required equation will be:

200 = 3n + 60  

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

where 'm' is the slope or rate of change and 'b' is the y-intercept of the equation

Let 'n' represents the number of students (n).Let 'c' represents the cost budget.

Given that Bea's catering charges $3 per person.

Thus, the slope or rate of change = m = 3 dollars per person

Given that the clean-up fee to cater banquets = $60

In other words, $60 is the initial condition or y-intercept.

Thus, the y-intercept b = 60

Given that the cost budget = c = $200

Thus, the equation becomes

c = mn+b

substituting c = 200, m = rate of cgange = 3, b = 60

200 = 3n + 60            ∵ comparing with y = mx+b

Thus, the required equation will be:

200 = 3n + 60  

The equation that determines the no of students should be 200 = 3n + 60  

Equation need to be used:

Here we assume n be the number of students

And, c be the the cost budget.

So, we know the equation should be formed by applying the following expression

c = mn+b

Here c = 200, m = r = 3, b = 60

Therefore, the equation is 200 = 3n + 60        

Hence, The equation that determines the no of students should be 200 = 3n + 60
