(x + 5)(x² - 3x)

Use FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last)

x(x²) = x³
x(-3x) = -3x²
5(x²) = 5x²
5(-3x) = -15x

Combine like terms:

x³ - 3x² + 5x² - 15x

x³ + 2x² - 15

x³ + 2x² - 15 is your answer

hope this helps

Consider the geometric sequence 16, 8, a, 2, b, ... (a) Write down the common

Artist 52 [7]

Find the common ratio by dividing.

16 / 8 = 2

8 / a = 2

2 / b = 2

The common ratio is 2.

Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.

8 / 2 = 4 (a)

2 / 2 = 1 (b)

Now, we know that first 5 terms.

We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.

6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5

7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25

8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125

Part A: 2

Part B: a = 4, b = 1

Part C: 0.125

Best of Luck!
