a.
In order to find the common ratio, we just need to divide a term by the term that comes before it.
So using the terms 20 and -5, we have:

b.
The recursive rule can be found with the formula:

Where an is the nth term and q is the ratio. So we have:

c.
The explicit rule can be written as:

Where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term and q is the ratio. So:
Answer:
thank you for the points.
Hi.
Please note that I haven't done much algebra.
4 more = 4 +
Twice as many than the runner up means 2 times the amount they ate (a variable) = 2n
So far we have 4 + 2n
Since it's an equation, we are going to know what it equals. In the problem, we find out that it's 11. So the equation looks like this:
4 + 2n = 11
If this didn't work out, please let me know.
