a_{n+1} =7a_{n}.

If we know the term n^{th} and the common relation, r, of a geometric sequence, you can find the term (n+1)^{th} using the recursive formula a_{n+1} =a_{n}.r.

The first term of the geometric sequence is a₁ = -3.

The common relation we have to find the relationship between a term and the term that precedes it.

r=\frac{-21}{-3} = 7

The recursive formula is:

a_{1} =-3

a_{n+1} =7a_{n}

a_1=-3\\r=7\\a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot r\\\\ \boxed{a_n=7a_{n-1}}

He did not distribute correctly in the first step.
4(x+2)=30
4x + 8=30
He should have distributed the 4 to the 2 as well.

Answer:

addition and multiplication are the inverse of subtraction and division, respectively.

The inverse of a function can be viewed as reflecting the original function over the line y = x. In simple words, the inverse function is obtained by swapping the (x, y) of the original function to (y, x).

We use the symbol f − 1 to denote an inverse function. For example, if f (x) and g (x) are inverses of each other, then we can symbolically represent this statement as:

g(x) = f − 1(x) or f(x) = g−1(x)

One thing to note about the inverse function is that the inverse of a function is not the same as its reciprocal, i.e., f – 1 (x) ≠ 1/ f(x). This article will discuss how to find the inverse of a function.

Since not all functions have an inverse, it is therefore important to check whether a function has an inverse before embarking on determining its inverse.
