The sequence: a 1 = - 4, a 2 = 8, a 3 = -16,...
a 2 = a 1 * r
8 = - 4 * r
r = 8 : ( - 4 )
r = - 2
a n = a 1 * r^(n-1)
a 5 = - 4 * ( - 2 ) ^4 = - 4 * 16 = - 64
Answer:
The fifth term in the sequence is - 64.

What makes the equation true?<br>20- 4=6+4+?

Ede4ka [16]

The answer would be 6 because 20-4=16. So to make it equal to that 6+4=10. Since it is not you need 6 more so answer is 6.

A direct variation exist between x and y. When x=4, y=3. What is the value of y when x=10

scoray [572]

Answer:

$y = 7.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Direct variation implies that:

$y = kx$

Where k is the constant of variation.

$x=4; y=3$

Required

Find y when $x = 10$

$y = kx$

Make k the subject

$k = \frac{y}{x}$

For: $x=4; y=3$

$k = \frac{3}{4}$

For: $x = 10$

$k = \frac{y}{x}$ becomes

$k = \frac{y}{10}$

Substitute $k = \frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{y}{10}$

Make y the subject

$y = \frac{3}{4} * 10$

$y = \frac{3* 10}{4}$

$y = \frac{30}{4}$

$y = 7.5$
