First, u multiply 8x3. Only the 4 can go in the ones place so put the four beneath the line and put the 2 over the 7.
Multiply 8x7 and add 2.
Move to the tens place, do 2x3 then 2x7.
Add the products and put the comma. Then ur done
A.) 7^4x = 10
log base 10 (7^4X) = log base 10 (10)
4x log base 10 (7) = 1
4x (0.8451) = 1
3.3804x = 1
x = 0.2958
b.) ln(2) + ln(4x-1) = 5
ln (2 * 4x-1) = 5
ln (8x-2) = 5
log base (3) (8x-2) = 5
e^5 = 8x-2
e^5+2 = 8x
x = 18.8016
N=1→an=a1 (first term)=16 (on the graph for n=1)→First term = 16
n=2→an=a2 (second term) = 4 (on the graph for n=2)→Second term = 4
ratio=(Second term)/(First term)=a2/a1=4/16
Simplifying the fraction dividing the numerator (4) by 4 and the denominator (16) by 4:
ratio=(4/4)/(16/4)→ratio=1/4
Answer: Option A. First term = 16, ratio = 1/4
