Answer:  5) r = 5, 8th term = -78,125

               6) r = 5, 8th term = -312,500

               7) r = 5, {1, 5, 25, 125, 625}

               8) r = 5, {-4, -20, -100, -500, -2500}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is: a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}, where;

  • n is the number of the term
  • a₁ is the first term
  • r is the common ratio

5)\ a_n=-5^{n-1}\\.\qquad =-1\cdot 5^{n-1}\quad \rightarrow \quad a_1=-1\ and\ r=5\\\\a_8=-5^{8-1}\\.\quad =-5^7\\.\quad =-78,125\\\\\\6)\ a_n=-4\cdot 5^{n-1}\quad \rightarrow \quad a_1=-4\ and\ r=5\\\\a_8=-4\cdot 5^{8-1}\\.\quad =-4\cdot 78,125\\.\quad =-312,500

7)\ a_1=1\ and\ r=5\\.\quad a_2=1\cdot 5=\boxed{5}\\.\quad a_3=5\cdot 5=\boxed{25}\\.\quad a_4=25\cdot 5=\boxed{125}\\.\quad a_5=125\cdot 5=\boxed{625}\\\\\\\\8)\ a_1=-4\ and\ r=5\\.\quad a_2=-4\cdot 5=\boxed{-20}\\.\quad a_3=-20\cdot 5=\boxed{-100}\\.\quad a_4=-100\cdot 5=\boxed{-500}\\.\quad a_5=-500\cdot 5=\boxed{-2500}\\\\\\

Female III-4 is pregnant via male III-5. The owner of this breeding pair wants to know the probabilities of several possible out
faust18 [17]

Answer: the following are required for IV-3 to have condition

Explanation:

-II-4 passes an X b chromosome to III-4 (probability = 1/2).

-If III-4 has the genotype X B X b (accounted for by the above probability), then she passes an X b chromosome to IV-3 (probability = 1/2).

-III-5 passes a Y chromosome to IV-3 (probability = 1/2).

All of these requirements are needed in sequence, so you apply the product rule here, too (1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8).

Once the individual probabilities are known, the sum and/or product rules can be used for various combinations (both conditions, either condition, etc.).
