The explicit formula for the geometric sequence c_{n} is

c_{n}=6(\frac{-1}{3})^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n}=a(r)^{n-1} , where:

  • a is the first term of the sequence
  • r is the common ratio between the consecutive terms

The geometric sequence of c_{n} is 6 , -2 , \frac{2}{3} , \frac{-2}{9} , \frac{2}{27}

∵ c_{1} = 6

∵ r=\frac{c_{2}}{c_{1}}

∵ c_{2} = -2

∴ r=\frac{-2}{6}

- Divide both term by 2 to simplify it

∴ r=\frac{-1}{3}

∵ c_{n}=c_{1}(r)^{n-1}

- Substitute the value of c_{1} and r in the rule above

∴ c_{n}=6(\frac{-1}{3})^{n-1}

The explicit formula for the geometric sequence c_{n} is

c_{n}=6(\frac{-1}{3})^{n-1}

14 = 2y/5 what is the solution?
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

y=35

Step-by-step explanation:

y in (-oo:+oo)

14 = (2*y)/5 // - (2*y)/5

14-((2*y)/5) = 0

(-2/5)*y+14 = 0

14-2/5*y = 0 // - 14

-2/5*y = -14 // : -2/5

y = -14/(-2/5)

y = 35

y = 35
