What is the value of y in the sequence below
2, у, 18,-54, 162

y=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric Sequences

Any given sequence is said to be geometric if each term can be obtained as the previous term by a constant value called the common ratio.

or equivalently

Looking closely at the sequence 2, y, 18,-54, 162 we can try to find out if it's a geometric sequence or not. We compute the possible common ratios

and we see they both result -3. If we use r=-3 and try to find the second term (y), then

y=2*(-3)=-6

Now we compute the third term: (-6)(-3)=18

Since we got the third term as given in the original sequence.

So y=-6

here is the

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
