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!

Thepotemich [5.8K]
Answer: 46

Explanation: If Mia is paid $55 for every bicycle, she would need to fix up/sell 46 bicycles. This is because 45 x 55 = 2475 and Mia wants over 2500 but 46 x 55 = 2530. Therefore, 46 is the minimum number of bicycles.
