Answer:

-17.9
2n -7.4

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, the only "like" terms are the constants. They are added together in the usual way.

1. -2.8 +0.9 -12 -4 = 0.9 -(2.8 +12 +4) = 0.9 -18.8 = -17.9

2. 2n +5.5 -0.9 -8 -4 = 2n +5.5 -(0.9 +8 +4) = 2n +5.5 -12.9 = 2n -7.4

Write the explicit formula that represents the geometric sequence -2, 8, -32, 128

Jet001 [13]

The Geometric Sequence Formula:

$a_n=a_1r^{n-1}$

We have:

$a_1=-2,\ a_2=8,\ a_3=-32,\ a_4=128,\ ...$

$d=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\to d=\dfrac{8}{-2}=-4$

Substitute:

$a_n=-22\cdot(-4)^{n-1}=-22\cdot(-4)^n\cdot(-4)^{-1}=-22\cdot(-4)^n\cdot\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=5.5(-4)^n$
