(8+2x) -> If 8 is added to twice a number (x)
5*(8+2x) -> and this sum is multiplied by 5
5*(8+2x)=x*(-28)+2   -><span>the result is the same as if the number is multiplied by negative −28 and 2 is added to the product.

Simplifying the equations on both sides would give
40+10x=-28x+2 transpose -28 to the left side and 40 to the right side
28x+10x=2-40
38x=-38
x=-1</span>

What is the 12th term of the geometric sequence where *
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

-224

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence is given by An = A*R^(n-1)

Given A7 = 7 and A10 = -56

A10/A7 = -8 = R^(10-7)

R^3 = -8

R = -2

A12 = A10*R^2

= -56*-2^2

= -224
