Answer:

  \text{B.  }a_n=625(0.2)^{n-1}\quad\text{for $n>1$}\\625,125,25,5,1

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for a geometric sequence with first term a1 and common ratio r is ...

  a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

In this problem, you are given a1=625 and r=0.2. Filling in those values gives the explicit formula ...

  a_n=625(0.2)^{n-1}

You can either evaluate this function for values of n = 1 through 5, or you can multiply each term by the common ratio to get the next.

  a1 = 625

  a2 = 625·0.2 = 125

  a3 = 125·0.2 = 25

  a4 = 25·0.2 = 5

  a5 = 5·0.2 = 1

The equation for the exponential function containing the points (0, 8) and (1, 32) is y = 8(4)ˣ

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on any other variable for its value while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

Where a is the initial value and b is the multiplication factor.

At point (0, 8):

8 = ab⁰

a = 8

At point (1, 32):

32 = 8b

b = 4

The equation for the exponential function containing the points (0, 8) and (1, 32) is y = 8(4)ˣ

4 1/8-2 3/4= 4 1/8 - 2 6/8= 1 3/8

2 3/5 + 1 5/6 = 2 18/30 + 1 25/30= 3 43/30 = 4 13/30

8 9/12 + 2 3/8= 8 18/24 + 2 9/24= 10 27/24 = 11 3/24= 11 1/8

3 1/3 - 1 1/2= 3 2/6 - 1 3/6 = 2 8/6 - 1 3/6= 1 5/6
