Answer:
x = 21/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-4(3/2x - 12) = -15
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- Distribute -4: -6x + 48 = -15
- Subtract 48 on both sides: -6x = -63
- Divide both sides by -6: x = 21/2

Answer:
In a geometric sequence, the <u>ratio</u> between consecutive terms is constant.
Step-by-step explanation:
A geometric sequence is where you get from one term to another by multiplying by the same value. This value is known as the <u>constant ratio</u>, or <u>common ratio</u>. An example of a geometric sequence and it's constant ratio would be the sequence 4, 16, 64, 256, . . ., in which you find the next term by multiplying the previous term by four. 4 × 4 = 16, 16 × 4 = 64, and so on. So, in this sequence the constant <em>ratio </em>would be four.
Remember that an exponent means repeated multiplication.
The exponent of 4 means you have four 
's mutiplied together:
And then each exponent of 2 inside means you have two 
's multiplied inside each set of parentheses.:
There are 8 b's there when you expand this out.
