When we substitute a specific valuefor each variable, and then perform the operations, it's called evaluating theexpression. Let's evaluate theexpression 3y + 2y when 5 = y. Click on the steps to see how it's done. Perform the operations, to find the value of the expression.
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Yes, they are proportional because if you increase or decrease either amount they will both change. They will always have the same size. For example if I want to double the flour, I will have to double the milk as well because they have the same ratio. 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Geometry Progression


Required
Calculate the second term
First, we need to write out the formula to calculate the nth term of a GP

For first term: Tn = 500 and n = 1




For fought term: Tn = 32 and n = 4


Substitute 500 for a

Make r^3 the subject


Take cube roots
![\sqrt[3]{r^3} = \sqrt[3]{0.064}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Br%5E3%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B0.064%7D)
![r  = \sqrt[3]{0.064}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%20%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B0.064%7D)

Using:  
 
      and
     and 




<em>Hence, the second term is 200</em>
