4 0

Answer: A is correct, an = 5(−2)n − 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for geometric sequences is an=a(r)^n-1

a is the first term, which is 5 in this case

r is the common ratio, which is -2 because (5)(-2)=-10

What is the slope of the line that goes through -3,7 & -17,3
Natalka [10]

Point 1: (-3, 7)

Point 2: (-17, 3)

To find the slope, we need to use the slope formula which is as follows: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). We will plug in each x and y coordinate from our points above, respectively.

m = (3 - 7) / (-17 - - 3)

m = (-4) / (-14)

m = 2/7

The slope of the line that goes through (-3, 7) and (-17, 3) is 2/7.

Hope this helps!! :)
