8. D: The longest sides of the quadrilaterals are 30 and 10. That is a 30 : 10 ratio, which simplifies to 3 : 1, or 3/1. It's not 1 : 3 because it is the ratio between the large (comes first) to the small (comes second) figure.

9. B: x corresponds to 26, and from the previous problem, we figured out that the sides of the larger figure are 3 times larger than the corresponding one on the smaller one. So x is 1/3 the length of 26, which is 26/3.

Which of the following graphs of exponential functions corresponds to a geometric sequence with a first term of 4 and a ratio of

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: graph E.

A geometric sequence can be written as:

$a_{n} = a_{1} \cdot r^{(n - 1)}$

where:

a₁ = first term = 4

r = ratio = 0.5

Substituting the numbers, we have:

$a_{n} = 4 \cdot (\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}$

or else

$f(x) = 4 \cdot (\frac{1}{2})^{x - 1}$

This is an exponential function with base less than 1. Therefore, we can exclude graph C (which depicts a linear function), and graphs A and D (which depict an exponential function with base greater than 1).

In order to choose between graph B and E, let's evaluate the function in two different points:

$f(1) = 4 \cdot (\frac{1}{2})^{1 - 1} = 4$
