Steps to solve:

5(r - 10) = -51

~Distribute left side

5r - 50 = -51

~Add 50 to both sides

5r = -1

~Divide 5 to both sides

r = -1/5

Best of Luck!

Oliga [24]

Answer:

First five terms are:

8 , (-4) , 2 , (-1) , (1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_{1}=8 \\\\r = \frac{-1}{2}\\\\a_{2}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{1}= \frac{-1}{2}*8= -4\\\\a_{3}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{2}=\frac{-1}{2}*-4=2\\\\a_{4}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{3}=\frac{-1}{2}*2=-1\\\\a_{5}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{4}=\frac{-1}{2}*-1=\frac{1}{2}$

Suppose the relationship between x and y is proportional. When x is 29, y is 275.5. Find the constant of proportionality of y t

ruslelena [56]

If it’s proportional, then when X is 1, y is 2.6, you get that by dividing 275.5 by 29

so when y is 408.5, x is 156.91

I believe that is correct.
