Step-by-step explanation:
We want to clear the fractions by multiplying both sides of the equation by the LCD of all the fractions in the equation. Find the least common denominator of all the fractions in the equation.
Answer:
<h2>
Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The explicit rule for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹ where;
a is the first term of the geometric sequence
r is the common ratio
n is the number of terms
If a geometric sequence has a common ratio of 2 and the 12th term is −12,288, then;
T₁₂ = ar¹²⁻¹
T₁₂ = ar¹¹
Given T₁₂ = -12,288 and r = 2, we can calculate the first term a
-12,288 = a2¹¹
a = -12,288/2¹¹
a = -12,288/2048
a = -6
Since the explicit rule for determining the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹, then for the sequence given, the explicit rule will be;
Tₙ = -6(2)ⁿ⁻¹
Tₙ = -6 * 2ⁿ * 2⁻¹
Tₙ = -6 * 2ⁿ * 1/2
Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ
Hence the explicit rule that describes this sequence is Tₙ = -3(2)ⁿ
