Find a1 for the geometric sequence with the given terms. a5=96 and a7=384
a1= blank (simplify your answer)

6

Step-by-step explanation:

r = √(384/96) = √4 = 2

so, a1 = 96/ (2)⁴ = 96/16 = 6

725 parts per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

hi there, this answer is actually really simple.

you can set it up as 1450/2 or 3625/5 to find the answer.

they want to know how much per hour is being made, so you just divide.

1450/2=725.

and that's how many are produced per hour.

hope this . : )
