Answer:
daats hard om
Step-by-step explanation:
5(m-1)=-2+9m+5
5m-5=-2+9m+5
5m-5=3+9m
5m-9m=3+5
-4m=3+5
-4m=8
m=-2
make the brainliest.
We have got an geometric progression.
We use to find any term of a geometric sequence, this equation:
an=a₁ * r^(n-1)
a₁= is the first term.
r=is the common ratio.
n=numbers of the term to find.
r=an / an-1
In this case:
r=a₂/a₁=(-4.8) / 9.6=-0.5
a₁=9.6
an=9.6*(-0.5)^(n-1)
It would take Carl 3.6 minutes and it would take Thomas 1.2 minutes.
