Consider the geometric sequence 16, 8, a, 2, b, ... (a) Write down the common
Artist 52 [7]

Find the common ratio by dividing.

16 / 8 = 2

8 / a = 2

2 / b = 2

The common ratio is 2.

Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.

8 / 2 = 4 (a)

2 / 2 = 1 (b)

Now, we know that first 5 terms.

We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.

6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5

7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25

8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125

Part A: 2

Part B: a = 4, b = 1

Part C: 0.125

Best of Luck!

4x-y=10 and y=2x-2 answers
Brums [2.3K]
4x - y = 10, y = 2x - 2

4x - (2x -2) = 10

4x - 2x + 2 = 10

2x = 8

x = 4

4(4) - y = 10

-y = -6

y = 6

So x = 4 y= 6

Hope this helps!
