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

B) 0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, complementary angles add to 90 degrees.

The given angle 58 degrees is complementary to 90-58 = 32 degrees. The two angles 58 and 32 add to 90.

Therefore, cos(32) = 0.848 = 0.85

Which is 2logx-6log(x-9) written as a single logarithm
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: option c.

Step-by-step explanation:

 To solve the given exercise and write the expression as a single logarithm, you must keep on mind the following properties:

m*log(a)=log(a)^m

log(a)-log(b)=log(\frac{a}{b})

Therefore, by applying the properties shown above, you can rewrite the expression given, as following:

2logx-6log(x-9)=logx^2-log(x-9)^6=log(\frac{x^2}{(x-9)^6})

Then as you can see, the answer is the option c.
