Find the 14th term of the geometric sequence 5 -10 20

Mathematics

Anna [14]3 years ago

Answer:

  a14 = -40,960

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence has a first term of 5 and a common ratio of -10/5 = -2, so the n-th term is given by ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

  an = 5·(-2)^(n-1)

The 14th term is then ...

  a14 = 5·(-2)^(14-1) = -5·2^13 = -5·8192

  a14 = -40,960

What is the absolute value -4/25???
andre [41]
Absolute value is a number's distance away from 0. So, all answers are positive. -4/25 is 4/25's away from 0, so your answer is -4/25. To clarify: if you have the absolute value of ANY number, it will always be the positive version of itself.

Solve the system of equations by using substitution.<br> y = 2x +3<br> y = -x + 6
padilas [110]

Answer:

x =3, y =3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the second equation( y= -x+6) we can get x alone.

Subtracting 6 from both sides we get, y-6 = -x

And then dividing both sides by -1, -y+6 = x

Then we can substitute this value of x into the first equation.

y = 2(-y+6) +3

Simplifying,

y = -2y + 12+ 3

3y = 15

y = 3

Substituting this back into second equation we get 3 = -x + 6

and -x = -3

Dividing both sides by -1,

we get x =3
