Mathematics

Temka [501]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

This is a geometry sequence (I.e each term is found by multiplying the same value to the previous term).

T1 = 4

T2 = -12 = T1 X (-3) = 4 X (-3)

T3 = 36 = T2 X (-3) = 4 X (-3)^2

T4 = 108 = T3 X (-3) = 4 X (-3)^3

The general (explicit) formula for the n-th term of this sequence is:

S(n) = 4 X (-3)^(n-1)

Find the mean of this set of numbers.
Marysya12 [62]
First step when finding the mean is to add all the values together
7 + -9 + 6 + -10 + -13 + -5
To make this easier, first add all the positive numbers 7 + 6 = 13
Then add (basically take away) the minus values one by one
13 - 9 = 4
4 - 10 = -6
-6 - 13 = -19
-19 - 5 = -24
Next step is to divide this total by the number of values there were
In this case, there were 6 values
-24 / 6 = -4
