The sequence forms a Geometric sequence as the rule to obtain the value for the next term is by ratio
Term 1: 1000
Term 2: 200
Term 3: 40
From term 1 to term 2, there's a decrease by

From term 2 to term 3, there's a decrease also by

The rule to find the

term in a sequence is

, where

is the first term in the sequence and

is the ratio
So, the formula for the sequence in question is

term =

The sequence is a divergent one. We can always find the value of the next term by dividing the previous term by 5 and if we do that, the value of the next term will get closer to 'zero' but never actually equal to zero.
We can find a partial sum of the sequence using the formula

for -1<r<1
Substituting

and

we have

=

= 1250
Hence, the correct option is option number 1
Answer:
The 2 answers are 4 and -4
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers are: 36 and 11 .

Explanation:
______________________________________________
Let us represent the TWO (2) numbers with the variables;
"x" and "y" .
__________________________________________
x + y = 47 .
y − x = 25.
__________________________________________
Since: " y − x = 25 " ;
Solve for "y" in terms of "x" ;
y − x = 25 ;
Add "x" to each side of the equation:
_____________________________________________
y − x + x = 25 + x ;
to get:
y = 25 + x .
Now, since:
x + y = 47 ;
Plug in "(25 + x)" as a substitution for "y"; to solve for "x" :
x + (25 + x) = 47 ;
x + 25 + x + 47 ;
2x + 25 = 47 ;
Subtract "25" from each side of the equation:
2x + 25 − 25 = 47 − 25 ;
2x = 22 ;
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "2" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
2x / 2 = 22 / 2 ;
x = 11 ;
______________________________________________
x + y = 47<span> ;
</span>Plug in "11" for "x" into the equation ; to solve for "y" ;
11 + y = 47 ;
Subtract "11" from EACH SIDE of the equation;
to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" ;
11 + y − 11 = 47 − 11 ;
y = 36 .
___________________________________________
So: x = 11 , y = 36 ;
___________________________________________
Let us check our work:
y − x = 25 ;
36 − 11 =? 25 ? Yes!
x + y = 47 ;
36 + 11 =? 47 ? Yes!

The numbers are: 36 and 11 .

The first question asks who sold more rolls. So start with figuring out how many Christie sold.
5 total - 1 2/3 left = 3 1/3 sold
you can convert the numbers to improper fractions with the same denominator. Like this:
5 x (3/3) - (3+2)/3
15/3 - 5/3 = 10/3
10/3 = 3 1/3
So now we know Christie sold more because 3 1/3 dozen is more than 2 1/2 dozen.
The part asks how many more.. Subtract the amounts the two girls sold.
3 1/3 - 2 1/2
10/3 x (2/2) - 5/2 x (3/3)
20/6 - 15/6 = 5/6
Christie sold 5/6 dozen more rolls. A dozen is 12 rolls so if you wanted to go further you just multiply 12 x 5/6 = 10 rolls
