This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 2 gives the next term.
For this case we have that by definition, the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:
Where:
It is the area of the base
h: It's the height
According to the data we have:
Then:
Thus, the volume is:
Answer:
The geometric sequence is found in the relationship between consecutive terms that is constant.
In this problem, as I understand it, none of the functions forms a geometric sequence.
The functions that form a geometric sequence have the form
f (x) = h (a) ^ n where "a" is the constant relation between the successive terms.
If you wrote the function "f (x) = - 2 (3/4) x", you wanted to write instead:
f (x) = - 2 (3/4) ^ x
So that would be the function that forms a geometric sequence, where the relation between the consecutive terms is 3/4.
You can test it by dividing f (x) / f (x-1)
Then you will see that the result of that division will be 3/4.
I believe the answer is 5. I multiplied 5 to -4 and that’s -20 and I’m guessing since slope-intercept form is y=Mx+b I’m thinking b=4 and the slope being 5 matches the output. -16=5(-4)+4
