Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5
Add 5/8x to each side
1/4x +5/8x +2= -5/8x+5/8x - 5
1/4x+5/8x +2= - 5
Subtract 2 from each side
1/4x+5/8x +2-2= - 5-2
1/4x+5/8x = - 7
Get a common denominator
1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7
2/8x + 5/8x = -7
7/8x = -7
Multiply each side by 8/7
8/7x * 7/8x = -7 *8/7
x = -8
The formula for an infinite geometric sequence is the following:

Just substitute the values of
