The answer would be 60
The first think you would need to do would simply 144. Which would be 12.
Then you are going to want to multiply-5 by 12.
Which would be 60.
With 12 as a positive number, being greater or to than 60 then will become a positive.
Hello there, and thank you for asking your question here on brainly.
Short answer: 74
Why?
We have two sets of parenthesis here, and we have to do the parenthesis inside of the other parenthesis, (called brackets) first. (11 - 2 = 9) Now multiply 9 by 5. (9 × 5 = 45) Multiply 45 by 2 . . . (45 × 2 = 90) Finally, subtract 90 by 16. (90 - 16 = 74)
Hope this helped you! ♥
If you notice the terms, they're
7, -21, 63, -189 and so forth.
7*-3 = -21 and -21 * -3 is 63 and so forth, meaning the "common ratio" is -3.
now, for a common ratio say "r", which is a fraction, namely less than ±1 and more than 0, or |r| < 1 , you do have a convergent sequence.
however this one notice, |-3| is 3, and that's greater than 1 clearly, therefore is divergent, meaning the summation has no finite value.
To answer this we need the coordinates of the first three points.
