Answer: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for the sequence is $a_{n}=10(0.5)^{n-1}$

Substituting in n=4,

$a_{4}=10(0.5)^{4-1}=\boxed{1.25}$

Solve for a: b − 2a = c

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

$a=-\frac{c-b}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for the variable $a$ , given that :

$b-2a=c$

We can first start start by subtracting $b$ from both sides of the equation:

$-2a=c-b$

Now, we can divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of $a$ , which would be $-2$ :

$a=\frac{c}{-2}-\frac{b}{-2}$

Applying the fraction rule $\frac{a}{c}\pm\frac{b}{c} =\frac{a\pm b}{c}$ :

$a=\frac{c-b}{-2}$

Then, apply the fraction rule $\frac{a}{-b} =-\frac{a}{b}$

$a=-\frac{c-b}{2}$
