In this question, you are asked to make a pattern start with 125 with 6 less number each pattern. Then the pattern equation would be: 125-6x where x is determined by the position of the number.
The question doesn't specify how many numbers in the pattern that needs to be written but the pattern should be like this: 125, 119, 113, 107, 101, 95, 89, 83, 77
-3 + (-6) = -9
This relates to to the problem because the team has lost a total of nine yards.
52 Degrees is the smallest measure :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio,r. Considering the given sequence,
r = 6/- 2 = - 18/6 = - 3
Therefore, the sequence is geometric.
The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Tn = ar^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms.
From the information given,
a = - 2
r = - 3
The explicit formula is
Tn = - 2 × (- 3)^(n - 1)
To find the 8th term, T8,
T8 = - 2 × (- 3)^(8 - 1)
T8 = - 2 × (- 3)^7
T8 = - 2 × - 2187
T8 = 4374
