good practice to double the weight each day while training she started with 12
Lb.on the first day what is her common ratio

Answer 1

Answer:

Common Ratio = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Emily started with 12 lb at start.

She will double each day

So,

2nd day she will take up weight = 12 * 2 = 24

3rd day she will take up weight = 24 * 2 = 48

and so on

This is a geometric sequence, which is a sequence where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant which is known as the common ratio.

Here, we are multiplying by "2" to get the next term, so we an say the common ratio is "2".

Answer: Common Ratio = 2
