Answer:
- an = 3(-2)^(n-1)
- 3, -6, 12, -24, 48
Step-by-step explanation:
These variable names, a1, r, are commonly used in relationship to geometric sequences. We assume you want the terms of a geometric sequence with these characteristics.
a1 is the first term. r is the ratio between terms, so is the factor to find the next term from the previous one.
a1 = 3 (given)
a2 = a1×r = 3×(-2) = -6
a3 = a2×r = (-6)(-2) = 12
a4 = a3×r = (12)(-2) = -24
a5 = a4×r = (-24)(-2) = 48
The first 5 terms are 3, -6, 12, -24, 48.

The explicit formula for the terms of a geometric sequence is ...
an = a1×r^(n -1)
Using the given values of a1 and r, the explicit formula for this sequence is ...
an = 3(-2)^(n -1)
Answer:
Region D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have two inequalities:
y ≤ 1/2x − 3
y < −2/3x + 1
First, we can see that the first inequality has a positive slope and the symbol (≤) so the values of the line itself are solutions, this line is the solid line in the graph.
And we have that:
y ≤ 1/2x − 3
y must be smaller or equal than the solid line, so here we look at the regions below the solid line, which are region D and region C.
Now let's look at the other one:
y < −2/3x + 1
y = (-2/3)*x + 1
is the dashed line in the graph.
And we have:
y < −2/3x + 1
So y is smaller than the values of the line, so we need to look at the region that is below de dashed line.
The regions below the dashed line are region A and region D.
The solution for the system:
y ≤ 1/2x − 3
y < −2/3x + 1
Is the region that is a solution for both inequalities, we can see that the only region that is a solution for both of them is region D.
Then the correct option is region D.
1) 5 cups of yellow paint; because if 10 cups of yellow paint are used for 2 cups of blue paint, then you would use 5 cups of yellow paint to even out the pigment of one cup of blue.
2) 3 cups of blue paint, and 15 cups of yellow paint
3) 5 cups of yellow for every cup of blue paint
4) for every cup of blue paint 5 cups of yellow are used to get the same shade of green
