You can only add like terms
exg
you can addd
2+4
2x+4x
2x^2+4x^2
2x^3+4x^3
but not
2+4x
2x^2+2x^3
so when adding like terms keep the exponent
4x+2x=6x
4x^3+2x^3=6x^3
(7x^2+4x-7)+(4x^2-6x+4)
get rid of the parenthasees
7x^2+4x-7+4x^2-6x+4
group like terms (x^2 with x^2 x with x, etc)
(7x^2+4x^2)+(4x-6x)+(-7+4)
add like terms
11x^2-2x-3
ANSWER

terms of a geometric sequence is given by;

Where
, is the number of terms and
is the first term.
When
, we have
, we get;





Answer:
1) 7/5
2) 9/8
3) 1/9
4) 13/5 which becomes 5/13
5) 27/8 which becomes 8/27
Step-by-step explanation:
→ The reciprocal of a number is just the 'flipped version' of it, the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator
