Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is
aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹
In your geometric sequence, a₁ = 4 and a₁₃ = 16 384.

It checks.
If the price after the discount is subtracted is $96.25 then this is what you do
u times 0.40 x 96.25 which is 38.5 so since you are wanting to know what the price was before the discount you would add 38.5 to 96.25 and when you do that your answer is 134.75
but if you are just trying to get the discount from 96.25 you subtract 38.5 from 96.25
The three points are on the same line, so the slopes formed by any of the two points stay the same
[-7-(-5)]/(-1-0)=[n-(-5)/(1-0)
(n+5)=2
n=-3
9c + 5ab/ 11c is the simplified answer
