Ryan is performing an experiment. He starts with a solution that has a temperature of 12.2°C. He lowers the temperature 5 times by the same amount each time. He stopped the experiment when the temperature of the solution was was -14.61°C.
Which equation can be used to find x, the number of degrees he lowered the temperature by each time?

(a) common ratio in the given sequence is, 3

(b) push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio(r)

(a)

given the sequence: 6 , 18 , 54 , 162 ,

this sequence is geometric sequence where each term is 3 times the previous term.

therefore,

common ratio(r) = 3.

(b)

a formula for nth term of geometric sequence is given by;

,   where r is the common ratio between the successive terms and is the first term,

to find how many push ups will kendall do on the 20th week.

here. n = 20th term.

in the given sequence first term

then;

simplify:

therefore, push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

320ft

step-by-step explanation:

120 divided by 3 equals 40

40 times 4=160

160 times 2=320
