In order to solve an equation by factoring, it should be that the equation is equal to zero.
m^2 + 8m + 7 = 0
For this case we have, to do completing the square in order to factor this equation.
<span>
m^2 + 8m = -7
</span><span>m^2 + 8m + 16 = -7 +16
</span><span>(m+4) (m+4) = 9
</span><span>(m+4)^2 = 9

Take the square root of both sides,
m+4 = 3
m = -1</span><span>
</span>

-4/3,4/9,-4/27,4/81,-4/243...<br><br> what is the common ratio! HELP ASAP
kaheart [24]
Answer: The common ratio is -1/3

-----------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

Pick any term to divide it by the previous term. I'm going to pick the second term and divide it by the first term.

r = common ratio
r = (term 2) divided by (term 1)
r = (4/9) divided by (-4/3)
r = (4/9) * (-3/4) 
r = (4*(-3))/(9*4)
r = -12/36
r = -1/3
The common ratio is -1/3

This means you multiply each term by -1/3 to get the next term

For instance
term 2 = r*(term 1)
term 2 = (-1/3)*(-4/3)
term 2 = ((-1)*(-4))/(3*3)
term 2 = 4/9
