Answer:
1 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-16x-28
Step-by-step explanation:
Break it into little pieces; start with distributing the -7:
-7(5+x)
-35-7x
Now add the rest of the problem: 7-35-7x-9x
Combine like terms: 7-35 7x-9x
7-35=-28 7x-9x=-16x
Rearrange so the coefficient and variable are upfront, giving you:
-16x-28
Answer:
The common ratio is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to divide a term by the previous term to find the common ratio in a geometric sequence:
64 ÷ 16 = 4
256 ÷ 64 = 4
By doing it twice we can confirm that the common ratio is 4
