Answer:

a(n) = -81(-4/3)^(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is -81.  From -81 we obtain the next term, 108, by multiplying -81 by -4/3.  Note how (-4/3)(108) = -144 as anticipated.

Thus, the common ratio is -4/3.

The explicit function for this geometric series is

a(n) = -81(-4/3)^(n - 1)

two friends bought a $14 pizza. Each person bought their own drink. The total cost of the food can be represented by the express
ycow [4]
We can just divide 2x+14 by 2 to get the cost of one person, as the equation represents the total costs of two people.

So the equation is x+7, but it may be x+14 because you can’t split the pizza.

I hope this helps!
