and
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Equation 1:
Simplifying the above equation by dividing both sides by 100
Equation 2:
Simplifying the above equation by dividing both sides by 400.
Now the system of equation is:
(1a)
(2a)
Solving by elimination
Multiplying equation (2a) with
(2b)
Adding equations (1a) and (2b) in order to eliminate
+
We get
∴
Plugging in equation (2a).
Adding both sides.
∴
Well, since we know is a geometric sequence, we can always get the common ratio of it by simply dividing one value by the one behind it... so let's do so, with say hmm -32 and 8 -32/8 = -4 <-- our common ratio
the first term is -2
the first term is -2
