Answer:

a_{n} = - 2(-4)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term ( explicit formula ) for a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a(r)^{n-1}

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a = - 2 and r = 8 ÷ - 2 = - 4, thus

a_{n} = - 2(-4)^{n-1}

A video game system costs $185 and one video game costs $14.95. You can spend no more than $280 on the system and games. set up
disa [49]

Answer:

Therefore the maximum number of video games that we can purchase  

is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let us say the number of video game system we can buy that costs $185

 is x and the number of video games of cost $14.95 is y.

ii) The total amount we can spend on the purchase of the video game

   system is $280.

iii) Now with the amount of $280 mentioned in ii) we can see that the

   number  of game systems that can be bought is 1.

 Therefore x = 1.

 Therefore the equation we can write to equate the number of video

  games  and video game system is given by $185 + $14.95 × y ≤ 280

  Therefore 14.95 × y ≤ 280 - 185 = 95

  Therefore y ≤   95 ÷ 14.95 = 6.355

  Therefore the maximum number of video games that we can purchase  

   is 6.
