Find the fifth term in the geometric
sequence, given the first term and
the common ratio.
a1 = 2 and r = 3
a5 = [ ?]

Answers

Answer 1
We can solve this in 2 ways
Since a1 = 4
a2 = 4 * (3) = 12 i.e( a1* common ratio)
a3 = 12 * (3) = 36 i.e( a2 * common ratio)
a4 = 36 * (3) = 108 i.e( a3* common ratio)
a5 = 108 * (3) = 324 i.e(a4*common ratio)

and so on
Answer 2

The fifth term is 162 in the geometric sequence.

What is geometric sequence?

The geometric sequence defined as a series represents the sum of the terms in a finite or infinite geometric sequence. The successive terms in this series share a common ratio.

The nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

Where a is the first term, r is the common ratio

What is arithmetic sequence?

A arithmetic sequence is defined as an arrangement of numbers which is particular order.

The formula to find the general term of an arithmetic sequence is,

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

Given data :

First term of sequence geometric (a₁) = 2

The common ratio of geometric (r) = 3

To determine the fifth term of geometric sequence

Let the fifth term of sequence = a₅    

The nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as :

Tₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

Substitute the values of n = 5, a₁ =2 and r = 3 in the formula,

T₅  = (2)(3)⁵⁻¹  

T₅  = (2)(3)⁴

T₅  = (2)(81)

T₅  = 162

Hence, the fifth term is 162 in the geometric sequence

Given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is between the limits

difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides, that is

Sugar and flour are mixed in the ratio 3.5 in a sweet recipe in another recipe 15 parts of flour are used if these two ingredeints on both recipes are in both recipes are an equivalent ratio

Answers

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the completed question.

Sugar and flour are mixed in the ratio 3:5 in a sweet recipe. In another recipe, 15 parts of flour are used. If these two ingredients in both recipes are in an equivalent ratio, how many parts of sugar should be used?

Ratio of sugar and flour = 3:5

Since 15 parts of flour are used, the parts of sugar that should be used will be:

= 15 ÷ 5/3

= 15 × 3/5

= 3 × 3

= 9

At that time Puddleby was only quite a small town. A river ran through the middle of it; and over this river there was a very old stone bridge, called Kingsbridge, which led you from the market-place on one side to the churchyard on the other.Sailing-ships came up this river from the sea and anchored near the bridge. I used to go down and watch the sailors unloading the ships upon the river-wall. The sailors sang strange songs as they pulled upon the ropes; and I learned these songs by heart. And I would sit on the river-wall with my feet dangling over the water and sing with the men, pretending to myself that I too was a sailor.For I longed always to sail away with those brave ships when they turned their backs on Puddleby Church and went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea. I longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign landsAfrica, India, China and Peru! When they got round the bend in the river and the water was hidden from view, you could still see their huge brown sails towering over the roofs of the town, moving onward slowlylike some gentle giants that walked among the houses without noise. What strange things would they have seen, I wondered, when next they came back to anchor at Kingsbridge!
