Write the equation of an exponential function that passes through the points (2,48) and (5,750).

Ok, so the function form is y = a * bx.
Substitute in the values:
750 = a * b5
and
48 = a * b2
Then divide the two equations:
750/ 48 = (a * b5) / (a * b2)
So:
15.625 = b3
Take the cube root of both sides:
2.5 = b
Now, substitue b into one of the equations (the one with 48 has smaller numbers and is easier to work with.)
48 = a * 2.52
Simplify.
48 = a * 6.25
Divide both sides by 6.25
7.68 = a
Now substitute in a and b to write the exponential function:
y = 7.68 * 2.5x

Find the 8th term of the geometric sequence 5, -15, 45
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

a₈ = - 10935

Step-by-step explanation:

the nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

here a₁ = 5 and r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} } = \frac{-15}{5} = - 3 , then

a₈ = 5 × (-3)^{7} = 5 × - 2187 = - 10935
