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}

1. First transformation is rotation rotation of 180 about the origin. This transformation has a rule:

(x,y)→(-x,-y).

If points E(-2,-4), F(-1,-1), D(-2,-1) are vertices of triangle EFD, then

  • E(-2,-4)→E''(2,4),
  • F(-1,-1)→F''(1,1),
  • D(-2,-1)→D''(2,1).

2. Second transformation is translation 1 unit left with a rule

(x,y)→(x-1,y).

Then

  • E''(2,4)→E'(1,4),
  • F''(1,1)→F'(0,1),
  • D''(2,1)→D'(1,1).

Answer: 1st: rotation of 180 about the origin; 2nd: translation 1 unit left.

Answer:

$127.45

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 450 from 3,508.80:

3,508.80 - 450 = 3058.8

Then, divide this by 24 to find the monthly payment:

3058.8/24

= 127.45

So, the monthly payment was $127.45
