Jia is skipping a rock across a pond. The sequence {4.2, 3.57, 3.0345, 2.5793, …} describes the height of the rock on each successive skip. Which explicit formula describes this geometric sequence? a)an=3.57(4.2)n−1

b)an=4.2(0.85)n−1

c)an=4.2(0.15)n−1

d)an=0.85(4.2)n-1

answer: i believe its b. if you sound out the sentences that sounds wrong.

answer:

c 60% on edg

answerim :

n

step-by-step explanation:

im not sure but my dad knows

yes, gavin is right.

step-by-step explanation:

gavin is correct. 

this problem is about converting 9% per year to how many percent per quarter. the rate is still the same. it only differed in the time period. so, through dimensional analysis,

9% per year  × (1 year / 4 quarters) = 2.25% per quarter

if he was asked to convert 9% per year to how many percent per quarter  compounded quarterly, then you will not simply divide by four. this is because compounding is not linear.

hope this , have a good day. c;
