Answer: The common ratio is -1/3
-----------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Pick any term to divide it by the previous term. I'm going to pick the second term and divide it by the first term.
r = common ratio
r = (term 2) divided by (term 1)
r = (4/9) divided by (-4/3)
r = (4/9) * (-3/4)
r = (4*(-3))/(9*4)
r = -12/36
r = -1/3
The common ratio is -1/3
This means you multiply each term by -1/3 to get the next term
For instance
term 2 = r*(term 1)
term 2 = (-1/3)*(-4/3)
term 2 = ((-1)*(-4))/(3*3)
term 2 = 4/9
5. bxh divided by 2
so 16 x 6=96
96 divided by 2 = 48
Answer:
y = 2 * 9 ^ x
Step-by-step explanation:
From the first point, you can get the value of a, since any number with power 0 with always equal to 1
Now you have y = (2)(b ^x), use the second point, substitute the value of X and y to (3,1458) to get the B value.
- 1458 = 2b ^ 3
- 729 = b ^ 3
- B = 9
