Answer:

The common ratio is -2.5

The next three terms are;

-125, 312.5 and -781.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, firstly we want to determine the common ratio

To

do this, we have to divide the succeeding term by the preceding term

We have this as;

50/-20 = -20/8 = -2.5

Now, to get the next terms,

we multiply the given last term by the common ratio

That will be;

50 * -2.5 = -125

next is to multiply this by the common ratio

That will be;

-125 * -2.5 = 312.5

And lastly, we have

312.5 * -2.5 = -781.25

A line passes through the points (2,21) and (8,27). Write a linear function rule in terms of x and y for
tatiyna
We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19

Help me on this plz
Andrews [41]

Answer: $467.21

Step-by-step explanation:

8% of 600 = 48

600 - 48 = 552

8% of 552 = 44.16

552 - 44.16 = 507.84

8% of 507.84 = 40.6272

8% of 507.84 ≈ 40.63

507.84 - 40.63 = 467.21
