The general form of the geometric sequence is a_{n} = a_{1} (r) ^{n-1}, where a sub n is the number term you're looking for (we're looking for the tenth term). a sub 1 is the first term in the sequence (ours is -6), r is the common ratio, and n-1 is the numbered term you're looking for minus 1.  Our formula then looks like this: a_{10} =-6(2) ^{10-1}.  Simplify it to  a_{10} =-6(2)^9.  Take 2 to the 9th power then multiply it by -6 to get -3072.  C is your answer.

Consider the line y = 1/4 - 5/4 x<br> Slope of a parallel line<br> Slope of a perpendicular line
gladu [14]

Answer:

parallel line slop2 = -5/4

perpendicular line slope = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2 lines are parallel, they will have equal slopes.

Therefore, the slope of a line parallel to y = 1/4 - 5/4 x will be -5/4

If 2 lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.  So the slope of the perpendicular line = -1 ÷ -5/4 = 4/5
