Answer:
a(n)= a(n-1) .10
Clearly see the equation
you can do it directly Apply logic
Every n th term is 10 times of previous n-1 th term
That is common ratio an/a(n-1)= 10
So, We have to find 4 th term
So, 4 th term is simply
1st term × (common ratio)^(4-1)
-11( 10)^3
-11000
Thanks
Note that h(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 60 factors to 4(x^2 - 2x - 15), and that the roots (zeros) of (x^2 - 2x - 15) are -5 and +3. Thus, the smallest zero is -5.
