Factors and multiples are helpful in working with expanding and reducing fractions, as well as finding patterns in numbers
Explanation:
A sequence is a list of numbers.
A <em>geometric</em> sequence is a list of numbers such that the ratio of each number to the one before it is the same. The common ratio can be any non-zero value.
<u>Examples</u>
- 1, 2, 4, 8, ... common ratio is 2
- 27, 9, 3, 1, ... common ratio is 1/3
- 6, -24, 96, -384, ... common ratio is -4

<u>General Term</u>
Terms of a sequence are numbered starting with 1. We sometimes use the symbol a(n) or an to refer to the n-th term. The general term of a geometric sequence, a(n), can be described by the formula ...
a(n) = a(1)×r^(n-1) . . . . . n-th term of a geometric sequence
where a(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio. The above example sequences have the formulas ...
- a(n) = 2^(n -1)
- a(n) = 27×(1/3)^(n -1)
- a(n) = 6×(-4)^(n -1)
You can see that these formulas are exponential in nature.

<u>Sum of Terms</u>
Another useful formula for geometric sequences is the formula for the sum of n terms.
S(n) = a(1)×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . sum of n terms of a geometric sequence
When |r| < 1, the sum converges as n approaches infinity. The infinite sum is ...
S = a(1)/(1-r)
Answer:
-8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope of the line
3x+y = 1
Solve for y
y = -3x+1
This is in slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope
The slope is -3
The slopes of perpendicular lines multiply to -1
m* -3 = -1
m = 1/3
The line perpendicular has a slope of 1 / (3) = 1/3
The sum is -3 + 1/3
-9/2 + 1/3 = -8/3
Answer:
The total price of the Rice sack is Rs 1920.
Step-by-step explanation:
The price of 1 sack of rice = Rs. 1,850
Wages Charge = Rs. 70
Now, the total price = Price of the Rice + Wages Charge
= Rs. 1,850 + Rs. 70
= Rs. 1920
or, the total price = Rs. 1920
Hence, the total price of the Rice sack is Rs 1920.
