Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:instead, try making the subscripts and superscripts stand out:
n-1
a = a * r
n n-1
Believe me, it's worth the extra work to do this!!
Given the sequence -3, -6, -12, -24, you can easily see that the first term,
a is -3. The common factor is 2. Note how (-3)*2=-6, and so on.
1
So, a = -3 and r=2.
1
So the formula for this geometric sequence is
n-1
a = -3*2
n
Answer:
a.
b.

Step-by-step explanation:
a. We know that angles in a triangle add up to 180°.
-The right angle triangle in the right triangle has a measure of 90°.
We can therefore equate our angles to 180° and solve for x;

Hence, the angle measure is x=10°
b. Having calculated the value of x from a above as x=10°, we can substitute to find the measures of the two acute angles:

Since, the m∠K is a right angle, it measures 90°
