The geometric rule for the nth term of the geometric sequence for which a1 =−6 and a5=−486 is -6 × 3^(n - 1)

<h3>The nth term of a geometric sequence</h3>

First term, a1 = -6

Fifth term, a5 = -486

a5 = ar^(n - 1)

-486 = -6 × r^(5-1)

-486 = -6r⁴

r⁴ = -486 / 6

r⁴ = 81

r = 4√81

r = 3

Geometric rule:

nth term = ar^(n-1)

nth term = -6 × 3^(n - 1)

What is the equation of the line with the same slope as the equation x-4y=3 and the y-intercept(0,-8)?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

y = 1/4x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line

x-4y =3

Subtract x from each side

x-4y -x = -x+3

-4y = -x+3

Divide each side by -4

-4y/-4 = -x/-4 +3/-4

y = 1/4 x -3/4

This is in the form y= mx+b where the slope is m and the y intercept is b

The slope is 1/4

We want the same slope

y = 1/4x +b

we know the y intercept is -8

y = 1/4x -8
