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

Answer:
y = - 1/4 x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Find two convenient integer coordinates like -4,2 and 4, 0
use these points to calculate the slope to be -1/4
intercept is b = 1
y = -1/4 x + 1
15. -(-7y + 12) = 7y - 12
16. 1/a = 16/18
cross multiply
16a = 18
a = 18/16 = 9/8
17. 8x - 12 = 4x + 24
8x - 4x = 24 + 12
4x = 36
x = 36/4
x = 9
18. -6b > 42 4b > -4
b < 42/-6 b > -4/4
b < - 7 b > -1
so b < -7 and b > -1
19. 6 more then the product of 8 and n
6 + 8n
20. 45 = 3b + 69
45 - 69 = 3b
-24 = 3b
-24/3 = b
-8 = b
