Answer:

7/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

=x/x+5.

x-5/x+5+4=⅛

x-5/x+9=⅛

x-5=⅛(x+9)

x-5=⅛x+1⅛

x-⅛x=1⅛+5

⅞x=49/8

7x=49

x=7

thus the initial fraction is x/x+5= <u>7</u><u>/</u><u>1</u><u>2</u>

A rational number is a fraction

Find an explicit formula for the geometric sequence -40,-20,-10......
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The explicit formula for the geometric sequence is c(n) = -40\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{n-1}.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition of geometric sequence, we should use the following expression:

c(n) = c_{1}\cdot r^{n-1}, n \ge 1 (1)

Where:

c_{1} - First term.

r - Geometric rate.

n - Position of the element within the series.

If we know that c_{1} = -40 and r = \frac{1}{2}, then the explicit formula for the geometric sequence is:

c(n) = -40\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{n-1}

The explicit formula for the geometric sequence is c(n) = -40\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{n-1}.
