Answer:2881
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio of both the formulas is 3 and 2. The first formula is explicit and the second is the recursive formula.
<h3>What is the recursive rule?</h3>
A rule is defined such that its definition includes itself.
1.
The given sequence is
-2, -6, -18, -54
Common ratio ;
r = -6 / -2 = 3

This given formula is the explicit formula.
2.
The given sequence is
4, 8, 16, 32
Common ratio ;
r = 8 / 4 = 2

This given formula is the recursive formula.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
2(x+8) = 40
Discussion:
Rewrite the original Question as
"
Twice the (sum of a number and 8) is 40" =>
2 ( x + 8 ) = 40 =>
2 (x+8) = 40
which is the third bullet point from the top
Thank you,
MrB
