Parentheses first. 1-4= -3. 4-3=1. 1-2=-1.
The answer is -1.
Answer:
88.83
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the mean of a set of numbers is to find the average a set of numbers.
To solve for the mean you have to add all of the values together and divide that sum by the number of values there are.
Ex. 81, 97, 99, 89, 91, 76
81 + 97 + 99 + 89 + 91 + 76 = 533
533 / 6 = 88.83

(number of values)
First, we are going to find the common ratio of our geometric sequence using the formula:

. For our sequence, we can infer that

and

. So lets replace those values in our formula:


Now that we have the common ratio, lets find the explicit formula of our sequence. To do that we are going to use the formula:

. We know that

; we also know for our previous calculation that

. So lets replace those values in our formula:

Finally, to find the 9th therm in our sequence, we just need to replace

with 9 in our explicit formula:



We can conclude that the 9th term in our geometric sequence is <span>
