The 5th term in a geometric sequence is 120. The 7th term is 30. What are the possible values of the 6th term of the sequence.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

± 60

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = a₁ * rⁿ⁻¹

a₇ = 30 = a₁ * r⁷⁻¹ = a₁ * r⁶     (1)

a₅ = 120 = a₁ * r⁵⁻¹ = a₁ * r⁴     (2)

(1)/(2): 30/120 = 1/4 = r²

r = ± 1/2   or ± 0.5

a₁ = a₇/r⁶ = 30/0.5⁶ = 1920

a₆ = 1920 * (± 1/2)⁶⁻¹ = 1920 * ± 1/32 = ± 60

Answer 2

The possible values of the 6th term of the sequence ± 60.

The 5th term in a geometric sequence is 120.

The 7th term is 30

We have to determine the 6th term of the sequence.

What is the formula for the nth term of the sequence?

[tex]a_n = a* r^n[/tex]

a₇ = 30 = a₁ * r⁷⁻¹ = a₁ * r⁶  ......   (1)

a₅ = 120 = a₁ * r⁵⁻¹ = a₁ * r⁴   ...  (2)

(1)/(2): 30/120 = 1/4 = r²

r = ± 1/2   or ± 0.5

a₁ = a₇/r⁶ = 30/0.5⁶ = 1920

a₆ = 1920 * (± 1/2)⁶⁻¹ = 1920 * ± 1/32 = ± 60.

Evaluate:
Σ18/1 (5n– 4) = [? ]

Answers

Basically, you are going to evaluate 5n - 4 from n = 1 to n = 18. Don't forget to add as you evaluate.

I will get you started.

Let n = 1 and then n = 2.

5(1) - 4 + 5(2) - 4 + the rest

5 - 4 + 10 - 4 + the rest

1 + 6 + the rest

7 + the rest

Just continue the pattern. You will then let n be 3, 4, 5, etc all the way to 18.

What is the value of a missing angle

Answers

Answer:

63°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, by looking at the angle we see that the overall angle is a right angle. This means that the total will add up to 90°.

Knowing this we can then subtract

90° - 27° = 63°

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of a right angle is always 90 so

90-27=63

Find the area of each figure and round to the nearest tenth if necessary

Answers

Given:

The figure of two semicircles with diameters 6 cm and 5 cm.

To find:

The area of the combined figure.

Solution:

It is given that the diameters of the semicircles are 6 cm and 5 cm so their radii are 3 cm and 2.5 cm respectively.

Area of a semicircle is:

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\pi r^2[/tex]

So, the combined area of two semicircles with radii 3 cm and 2.5 cm is:

[tex]Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\pi (3)^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\pi (2.5)^2[/tex]

[tex]Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\pi (9)+\dfrac{1}{2}\pi (6.25)[/tex]

[tex]Area=14.137167+9.817477[/tex]

[tex]Area=23.954644[/tex]

Round the value to the nearest tenth (one decimal place.

[tex]Area\approx 24.0[/tex]

Therefore, the area of given figure is 24.0 sq. cm.

The probability that a randomly chosen person from this group is male is 0.48.

What is the probability that a male is chosen?

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

The probability of choosing a male = number of males / total number of males and females

229/479 = 0.48

The area of triangle QTU is 6 square units, and the area of triangle RSU is 6 square units. The dimensions in the figure below are labeled in units. What is the area of triangle STU in square units

Answers

Answer:

The area of a triangle is 1/2BH, or 1/2 times the base times the height.

If the area = 6, and B and H must both be whole numbers.

The area of the triangle ΔSTU is given by A = 12 units²

What is a Triangle?

A triangle is a plane figure or polygon with three sides and three angles.

A Triangle has three vertices and the sum of the interior angles add up to 180°

Let the Triangle be ΔABC , such that

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

The area of the triangle = ( 1/2 ) x Length x Base

For a right angle triangle

From the Pythagoras Theorem , The hypotenuse² = base² + height²

if a² + b² = c² , it is a right triangle

if a² + b² < c² , it is an obtuse triangle

if a² + b² > c² , it is an acute triangle

Given data ,

Let the area of the triangle ΔSTU be represented as A

Now , the area of triangle ΔQTU is 6 square units, and the area of triangle ΔRSU is 6 square units

So , the base of the triangle ΔSTU = 6 units

The height of the triangle ΔSTU = 4 units

So , area of the triangle = ( 1/2 ) x Length x Base

On simplifying , we get

The area of triangle ΔSTU = ( 1/2 ) x 4 x 6

The area of triangle ΔSTU = 12 units²

Therefore , the value of A is 12 units²

Hence , the area of the triangle is 12 units²
