This is a geometric sequence because dividing any term by the previous term results in a constant called the common ratio.  Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number.

The common ratio,r, is -16/8=32/-16=-64/32=-2, and the first term, a, is 8

So the rule for this sequence is:

a(n)=8(-2)^(n-1), so the 13th term is:

a(13)=8(-2^12)

a(13)=32768

Find the 2 different rates at which the farm worker worked:

3 pints
--------- = 0.75 pint/min
4 min

2 pints
---------- = 0.67 pint/ min
3 min

Then you need to subtract 0.67 pint/min from 0.75 pint/min to answer this question.

Alternatively, subtract 2/3 pint/min from 3/4 pint/min.

Can someone help me please

Remember, mean is average. So first you add them all up, and then divide by the total number. All the dollars added up and then divided by 6 equals 59. So, working backwards, if you multiply 6 (the number of categories) by 59 you get the total of all money earned from every category. 6 times 59 equals 354. But if you add what you can see right now, it only equals 274. So the t-shirt total must be the difference between the two... 80 dollars.
