Point slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1). Answer: y-7=6(x-(-4))
a.
In order to find the common ratio, we just need to divide a term by the term that comes before it.
So using the terms 20 and -5, we have:

b.
The recursive rule can be found with the formula:

Where an is the nth term and q is the ratio. So we have:

c.
The explicit rule can be written as:

Where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term and q is the ratio. So:
The first car consumed 21 gallons while the second car consumed 49 gallons. here is the how it's done.
for the first car gallons consumed is 15/50x70= 21 gallons
the second car consumed 35/50x70=49 gallons
Cost of each shirt bought by Brain = 14.50
Then
Cost of 2 shirts bought by Brain = 2 * 14.50
= 29
Cost of a pair of shoes = 29.99
Total amount spent by Brain before tax = 29 + 29.99
= 58.99
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be [paid = (6/100) * 58.99
= 353.94/100
= 3.54
So
the total amount spent by Brain including tax = 58.99 + 3.54
= 62.53
I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
