A1=2
a2=-8
a3=32
a4=-128
a2/a1=(-8)/2→a2/a1=-4
a3/a2=32/(-8)→a3/a2=-4
a4/a3=(-128)/32→a4/a3=-4
a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3=r=-4
an=a1*r^(n-1)
an=2*(-4)^(n-1)
The explicit rule for the nth term of the given sequence is an=2*(-4)^(n-1)
Answer:
98cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x = -8 ; y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
1*x-2*y=4
1*x = 4 + 2*y
x = 4 + 2*y
Now you replace the value of x on the following equation:
-1*x+10*y=8
-1*(4 + 2*y) = 8
-4 - 2*y = 8
-2*y = 8+4
-2*y = 12
y = -12/2
y = -6
You replace the value of y in the previous equation:
x = 4 + 2*y
x = 4 + 2*(-6)
x = 4 - 12
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1: given= 6*0=0
step 2: Use the distributive property
step 3: Substitute
step 4: -
step 5: Subtract 60 from both sides
step 5: simplify
Answer:
5 times as many should be your answer.
