Sequence: -4, 8, -16
rate of increase: -16/8 = -2
If you make A1 the first term in the sequence you must use (n-1) in the explicit formula. If you go backwards in the sequence to find A0 = 2 then you would use n.
The don't have A0 = 2 listed as an option so we use A1 = -4 and (n-1) terms.
An = -4(-2)^(n-1)
Solving for the 5th term A5, use n = 5
A5 = -4(-2)^(5-1)
A5 = -4(16)
A5 = -64
So the answer is B.
Remember, if the two graphs are symmetric with respect to the line y = x (mirror images over y = x ), then they are inverse functions. But, we need a way to check without the graphs, because we won't always know what the graphs look like! then f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions.

Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
At each height above the base, the cross section of each cone shown is the same (a circle with the same diameter), so Yes, Cavalieri's Principle applies.
