Parallel lines share the same slope, so the slope of the parallel line in this case must be .
Point-slope form is , where
is the slope and
is any known point on the line.
Plug in the values.
Simplify and distribute.
Subtract 1 from both sides.
Answer:
An explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:
It means, option (B) should be true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the geometric sequence
A geometric sequence has a constant ratio, denoted by 'r', and is defined by
Determining the common ratios of all the adjacent terms
As the ratio is the same, so
r = 4
Given that f₁ = -1/2
substituting r = 4, and f₁ = -1/2 in the nth term
Thus, an explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:
It means, option (B) should be true.
