Answer: $\bold{(1)\ \dfrac{19,683}{64}\qquad (2)\ 16}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

(1) (12, 18, 27, ...)

The common ratio is:

$r=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\quad r =\dfrac{18}{12}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{2}}\quad \rightarrow \quad r=\dfrac{27}{18}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{2}}$

The equation is:

$a_n=a_o(r)^{n-1}\\\\Given:a_o=12,\ r=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\\Equation:\\a_n =12\bigg(\dfrac{3}{2}\bigg)^{n-1}\\\\\\\\9th\ term:\\a_9=12\bigg(\dfrac{3}{2}\bigg)^{9-1}\\\\\\a_9=12\bigg(\dfrac{3}{2}\bigg)^{8}\\\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{19643}{64}}$

$(2)\qquad \bigg(\dfrac{1}{16},\dfrac{1}{8},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{The common ratio is}:\\\\r=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\quad r=\dfrac{\frac{1}{8}}{\frac{1}{16}}=\boxed{2}\quad \rightarrow \quad r=\dfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{1}{8}}=\boxed{2}$

The equation is:

$a_n=a_o(r)^{n-1}\\\\Given:a_o=\dfrac{1}{16},\ r=2\\\\\\Equation:\\a_n =\dfrac{1}{16}(2)^{n-1}\\\\\\\\9th\ term:\\a_9=\dfrac{1}{16}(2)^{9-1}\\\\\\a_9=\dfrac{1}{16}(2)^{8}\\\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{16}$

Heidi solved the equation 3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4). Her steps are below: 3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x – 20 3x + 14 = 5x – 18 14 = 2x

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

Step 1: distributive property

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

Step 2: collect like terms

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

Step 3: Addition property of equality

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18

3x + 32 = 5x

Step 4: subtraction property of equality

3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x

32 = 2x

Step 5: division property of equality

32 = 2x

32/2 = 2x/2

16 = x

x = 16
