A1=2
a2=-8
a3=32
a4=-128
a2/a1=(-8)/2→a2/a1=-4
a3/a2=32/(-8)→a3/a2=-4
a4/a3=(-128)/32→a4/a3=-4
a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3=r=-4
an=a1*r^(n-1)
an=2*(-4)^(n-1)
The explicit rule for the nth term of the given sequence is an=2*(-4)^(n-1)
Answer:
First step
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the 4 to the other side making the equation
(12x+8)+4=3
12x+8=-1
12x=-9
x=-3/4
Answer:
r = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = change in y / change in x, so:
change in y / change in x = 2/3
5 - r / 7 - 1 = 2/3
5 - r / 6 = 2/3

now solve this equation.
first, multiply both sides by 6 to get rid of the fraction:

subtract 5 from both sides

multiply both sides by -1
