This is a geometric sequence with a=2, r= -3/2.
Therefore,
a₁ = 2
a₂ = 2*(-3/2) = -3
a₃ = 2*(-3/2)² = 9/2 = 4.5
a₄ = 2(-3/2)³ = -27/4 = -6.75
a₅ = 2(-3/2)⁴ = 81/8 = 10.125

Answer:
In fractions, the first five terms are
     2, -3, 9/2, -27/4, 81/8
In decimals, the first five terms are
     2.000, -3.000, 4.500, -6.750, 10.125

What is the result when the number 66 is decreased by 8%?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

60.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply if you can, use a calculator and do one of two things. First off, the easier way, you can do 92% of 66, which is 60.72, the more difficult way is to find 8% of 66 which is 5.28, and then subtract 66 by 5.28 which is 60.72. Hope this helps

Julli [10]
<span>The distance between g and h is sqrt[(2-2)^2+(4+3)^2]=7 The distance between h and j is sqrt[(2+2)^2+(-3+3)^2]=4 The distance between j and k is sqrt[(-2+2)^2+(-3-4)^2]=7 The distance between k and g is sqrt[(-2-2)^2+(4-4)^2]=4 The perimeter of the polygon is 7+4+7+4=22</span>
