Find the common ratio by dividing.
16 / 8 = 2
8 / a = 2
2 / b = 2
The common ratio is 2.
Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.
8 / 2 = 4 (a)
2 / 2 = 1 (b)
Now, we know that first 5 terms.
We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.
6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5
7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25
8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125
Part A: 2
Part B: a = 4, b = 1
Part C: 0.125
Best of Luck!
1/2(4y+7)
Use the distributive property. a(b+c)= ab+ac
1/2*4y= 2y
1/2*7= 3.5
2y+3.5 <---- simplified expression
I hope this helps!

300 mg/tablet
150 tabletsx(300mg/1 tablet)=150x300=45000 mg=45 grams
answer: it would be one solution, becasue the variables are different and the constants dont matter, since the variables are different
(7+x)+x=15
I did trial and error to get x=4.
