the question does not present the options, but this does not interfere with the resolution

Let

a1=-4

a2=-24

a3=-144

a4=-864

a5=?


we know that

a2/a1=-24/-4----> 6-------> a2=6*a1

a3/a2=-144/-24---> 6-----> a3=6*a2

a4/a3=-864/-144---> 6----> a4=6*a3

therefore

a5=6*a4-----> a5=6*(-864)------> a5=-5184


hence 

the formula is

an=6*a(n-1)

<span>n and (n-1) are subscripts </span>

Nate's savings account for the business had $12.10 more at the end of the year than the $252 it had at the begining of the year.
Ulleksa [173]
4.58% is the answer. You need to add the $12.10 to $252 to get the total. 252x100%=2500÷264.10 then subtract the answer from 100.

Pls help I don't understand !! !!
NemiM [27]
100cm is equivalent to 1m so 500cm is equivalent to 5m. What you need to do is divide 500cm (5metres) by 25cm (one quarter of a metre). So the number sentence using 'division' should look like 500cm divided by 25cm which equals 20. Don't forget to use proper symbols for division though. Let me know if this helps:)
