This is really easy.
x-4=8
what it really is asking you is the value of x
Isolate x
take 4 to the other side. not -4 but positive 4
x=12
Answer: A) 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Tn = ar^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms.
If the third term is 20, it means that
T3 = 20 = ar^(3 - 1)
20 = ar²- - - - - - - - - - 1
If the third term is 20, it means that
T5 = 5 = ar^(5 - 1)
5 = ar⁴- - - - - - - - - - 2
Dividing equation 2 by equation 1, it becomes
5/20 = r⁴/r²
1/4 = r^(4 - 2)
(1/2)² = r²
r = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a−(6a−(5a−8))
a-(6a-5a+8)
a-6a+5a-8
6a-6a-8
0-8
=-8
so the answer doesn't depend on a
