find the 9th term of the geometric sequence 6,-24,96...

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A9 = 393216

Step-by-step explanation:

the first thing that will help you solve this question is finding the common ratio between each terms

the first thing that I like to do that usually helps is to take the second term (-24) and divide it by the first term (6) --> this will usually help you spot the common ratio fairly quickly

in your case, the common ratio is -4

- you can also check this by following my note above and then multiplying the second term by the common ratio to see if it matches the third term, which it does!

so now you can go about this two different ways

1. solve directly for the 9th term

2. use the nth term formula for geometric sequences

METHOD 1:

if you continue to multiply by -4 to solve for each term you would end up with:

6, -24, 96, -384, 1536, -6144, 24576, -98304, 393216

and you will recieve 393216 as your answer

METHOD 2:

the nth term formula is An = A1*r^(n-1)

where An = the nth term of the sequence

A1 = first term of the sequence (6)

and r = common ratio

using this formula, you would get:

A9 = 6(-4)^8

A9 = 393216

I hope this helped :)

Ahmad went on a bicycle tour. In the first two hours , he averaged 12 km/h; but in the next three hours he averaged 8 km/h;. A)Calculate the total distance covered b) , calculate his average speed for the whole journey

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We are informed that Ahmad averaged 12 km/h in the first 2 hours. Total distance for the first 2 hours = 12km × 2 = 24km.

In the next three hours he averaged 8 km/h. The total distance for the next 3 hours = 8km × 3 = 24 km

A) Calculate the total distance covered.

This will be the distance covered for the 5 hours. This will be:

= 24km + 24km

B. Calculate his average speed for the whole journey.

This will be:

= Total distance covered / Total time taken

= 48km / 5

= 9.6 km/hour

Kate had 50 tickets to use for rides at the fair. She lost some of them. Her dad doubled the tickets she had left. Kate wrote the expression 2(50−t) to find the number of tickets she has now, where t t is the number of tickets she lost. Jack correctly wrote another expression, 100−2t, to find the number of tickets Kate has now. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Kate's and Jack's expressions mean.

Answer:

50 means Kate's initial number of tickets

t = number of tickets she lost

2 = multiple by which her dad gave ; two times the number of her remaining tickets.

100 = double the number of initial tickets

2t = two times the number of tickets lost

Step-by-step explanation:

Kate's expression :

2(50 - t)

50 means Kate's initial number of tickets

t = number of tickets she lost

2 = multiple by which her dad gave ; two times the number of her remaining tickets.

Jack's expression:

100 - 2t

Jack's expression is an expanded for of Kate's equation

100 = double the number of initial tickets

2t = two times the number of tickets lost

2(50 - t) :

(2 * 50) - (2 * t)

Write an equation for each line. A graph. Line k. Line m. Line p. Line r.

Answers

Answer:

line k:  y = x + 4

line m:  y = -2x + 4

line p:  y = -6

line r:  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for each line considering the graph is line k:  y = x + 4, line m:  y = -2x + 4, line p:  y = -6, line r:  x = 1

What is a line?

An object having an endless length and no width, depth, or curvature is called a line. Since lines can exist in two, three, or higher-dimensional environments, they are one-dimensional things.

Calculate the slopes of the lines as shown below,

[tex]m = y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1[/tex]

For line k, m = 0 - (-4) / -4 -0

m = -1

Thus, the equation of a line having slope -1 and coordinates (0, 4) can be written as,

[tex]y-y_1 = m(x- x_1 )[/tex]

y - 4 = -1(x-0)

y -4 = -x

y = -x + 4

Similarly, write the equation for lines m, p, and r,

line m:  y = -2x + 4

line p:  y = -6

line r:  x = 1

At work, Mr. Grinnell receives 20 phone calls every 60 minutes. How many calls should he expect to receive in 180 minutes?
60
80
100
40

Answers

Answer:

Use a ratio.

20/60 = x/180

180/60 = 3, so 20*3 is 60.

The answer is 60.

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how many phone calls Mr. Grinnell receives in 1 minute.

60 mins = 20

1 min = 20 ÷ 60 = 0.333

180 mins = 0.333 x 180 = 59.94

59.94 rounded to the nearest whole number = 60

In a certain country the heights of adult men are normally distributed with a mean of 69 inches and a standard deviation of 2.2 inches. The country's military requires that men have heights between 64.6 inches and 73.4 inches.

Answers

Complete Question

In a certain country the heights of adult men are normally distributed with a mean of 69 inches and a standard deviation of 2.2 inches. The country's military requires that men have heights between 64.6 inches and 73.4 inches.

What percentage of this country's men are eligible for the military based on height?

Answer:

95.45 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

z-score iis z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean = 69

σ is the population standard deviation = 2.2

For x= 64.6 inches

z = 64.6 - 69/2.2

z = -2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 64.6) = 0.02275

For x= 73.4 inches

z = 73.4 - 69/2.2

z = 2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<73.4) = 0.97725

The probability of this country's men are eligible for the military based on height is calculated as:

p(x = 73.4) - p( x = 64.6)

0.97725 - 0.02275

= 0.9545

Converting to Percentage is

= 0.9545 × 100

= 95.45 %

Baba Yaga lost her broom somewhere between her hut and Bald Mountain, and wants to get it back. She calculates that with a tailwind of 2 km/h, she can fly from her hut to Bald Mountain in 6 hours. Baba Yaga starts her trip, finds her broom 40 km before Bald Mountain, and turns around and flies home. The entire journey takes 9 hours. Find the speed Baba Yaga flies in quiet weather (with no tailwind or headwind).

Answers

Answer:

The speed with which Baba Yaga flies in quiet weather (with no tailwind or headwind) is approximately 2.9 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we have;

The speed of the tailwind = 2 km/h

The time it takes Baba Yaga to the Bald Mountain = 6 hours

The location where Baba Yaga finds her broom = 40 km before Bald Mountain

The duration of the entire journey = 9 hours

Let 'v' represent the speed with which Baba Yaga flies in quiet weather (with no tailwind or headwind), we get;

(v + 2) × t = (v - 2) × (t - 9)

v·t + 2·t = v·t - 9·v - 2·t + 18

2·t = 18 - 9·v - 2·t

4·t = 18 - 9·v

t = 4.5 - 2.25·v

(v + 2) × 6 = (v - 2) × (t - 9) + 40

6·v + 12 = (v - 2) × (4.5 - 2.25·v - 9) + 40

6·v + 12 = (v - 2) × (-2.25·v - 4.5) + 40

With a graphing calculator, we have;

6·v + 12 + 2.5·v² - 0.5·v - 9 - 40 = 0

5·v² + 11·v - 74 = 0

Using the quadratic formula

v = (-11 ± √(11² - 4·5×(-74)))/(2·5)

v ≈ 2.9, or v ≈ -5.1

Therefore;

The speed with which Baba Yaga flies in quiet weather (with no tailwind or headwind), v ≈ 2.9 km/h
