Answer:

aₙ = 40*(1/2)ⁿ⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>As per graph we have:</u>

  • a₁ = 40, a₂ = 20, a₃ = 10, a₄ = 5, a₅ = 2.5

<u>So the first term is </u><u>40</u><u> and common ratio is </u>

  • 20/40= 10/20 = 5/10 = 2.5/5 = 1/2

<u>Formula for nth term is:</u>

  • aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹
  • aₙ = 40*(1/2)ⁿ⁻¹

See each answer below.

1) If we subtract 7 from both sides and try to take the square root, we are taking the square root of -7. Therefore, there are no solutions.

2) Dividing by 3 and taking the square root gives an answer of 0.

3) Add 4, multiply by 4 and finally take the square root of each side.You will get positive or negative four.

4)  Divide by 4 and then take the square root. You have positive or negative 5/2.
