RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

18% of 40 is 7.2

Change the percentage (18%) into a decimal by dividing it over 100:

18/100 = 0.18

Divide 7.2 by the decimal (0.18):

7.2 / 0.18 = 40

What is the 7th term of the geometric sequence where a1 = -625 and a2 = 125
kykrilka [37]
Since the sequence is geometric, there is some constant r such that the sequence is recursively given by

a_n=ra_{n-1}

By this definition, you can recursively substitute into the right hand side the definition for a_{n-1},a_{n-2},\ldots to find an explicit formula for the nth term.

a_n=ra_{n-1}=r^2a_{n-2}=r^3a_{n-3}=\cdots=r^{n-1}a_1=-625r^{n-1}

You know the second term, which means you can find r:

a_2=-625r^{2-1}\implies125=-625r\implies r=-\dfrac15

So, the 7th term of the sequence is

a_7=-625\left(-\dfrac15\right)^{7-1}=-\dfrac1{25}
