what is the 12th term divided by the 10th term for the sequence an= 5(3)^n-1
CPhill: Did you make a mistake here?
It would just be 5(3)^2 = 45
Since the common ratio is 3, therefore the 12th term divided by the 10th term should be: 3 X 3=9.
a(12)=5(3)^12-1=885,735
a(10)=5(3)^10-1=98,415
885,735/98,415 =9
Yep, guest.....I made a boo-boo.....your answer is definitely correct.....!!!
Three lashes with a wet noodle for me.....!!!!!
