Your sequence
-8, 16/3, -32/9, 64/27
is a geometric sequence with first term -8 and common ratio
(16/3)/(-8) = (-32/9)/(16/3) = -2/3
The general term an of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and ratio r is given by
an = a1·r^(n-1)
For your sequence, this is
an = -8·(-2/3)^(n-1)
1. 1/10
2. 3/5
3. 1/10
4. 1/6
5. 3/14
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you would have to do 11x + 3x Since you're combining like terms.
Now your problem is 14x + 40 = -24
Now you would do 40 - -24 which is now 40+24 and equal to 64.
Now you divide 14 by 64 and you get 4.5
