Answer:

A. Both factors are negative, so the product will be positive

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember negative times negative will always be positive

And use the process of elimination:

You know that negative times negative is not negative so that eliminates B.

And there are two negatives in the equation not one positive and one negative so it is not choice C.

The same concept applies is for choice D.

Hope this helps!

Find x so that x, X +2, X'+3 are the first three terms of a geometric sequence. Then find the 5" term of the
velikii [3]

Answer:

The fifth term is -1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first three terms of the geometric sequence is <em>x, x</em> + 2, and <em>x </em>+ 3.

So, our first term is <em>x</em>.

Then our second term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio <em>r</em>. So:

x+2=xr

And our third term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio <em>r</em> twice. Therefore:

x+3=xr^2

Solve for <em>x</em>. From the second term, we can divide both sides by <em>x: </em>

\displaystyle r=\frac{x+2}{x}

Substitute this into the third equation:

\displaystyle x+3=x\Big(\frac{x+2}{x}\Big)^2

Square:

\displaystyle x+3 = x\Big( \frac{(x+2)^2}{x^2} \Big)

Simplify:

\displaystyle x+3=\frac{(x+2)^2}{x}

We can multiply both sides by <em>x: </em>

x(x+3)=(x+2)^2

Expand:

x^2+3x=x^2+4x+4

Isolate the <em>x: </em>

-x=4

Hence, our first term is:

x=-4

Then our common ratio <em>r</em> is:

\displaystyle r=\frac{(-4)+2}{-4}=\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac{1}{2}

So, our first term is -4 and our common ratio is 1/2.

Then our sequence will be -4, -2, -1, -1/2, -1/4.

You can verify that the first three terms indeed follow the pattern of <em>x</em>, <em>x</em> + 2, and <em>x</em> + 3.

So, our fifth term is -1/4.
