Answer:

179.159

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence :

50, 60, 72,..

The sequence given is a geometric sequence :

For a geometric sequence ;

ar^(n - 1)

a = first term

r = a2 / a1 = 60 / 50 = 1.2

The 8th term ; n =8

a8 = ar^(n - 1)

a8 = 50*1.2^(8 - 1)

a8 = 50*1.2^7

a8 = 50*3.5831808

a8 = 179.15904

a8 = 179.159 (nearest thousandth )

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

0 = 4x + 4

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Subtract 4 on both sides:                    -4 = 4x
  2. Divide 4 on both sides:                        -1 = x
  3. Rewrite:                                                 x = -1
