Answer:

-1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Better to write this as

a(n)= -5(1/2)^(n-1)

Then the 3rd term is a(3) = -5(1/2)^(3 - 1), or a(3) = -5(1/2)^2 = -5/4 = -1.25

60 is 5 times greater than k expression

Alik [6]

60=5k
Is the equation because the word 'is' means equals, so we add an equal sign after the 60. "Five times greater" simply means multiply so we multiply 5 and k.
Then to solve the equation, you would need to divide both sides by 5 to isolate the variable
60/5=5k/5
12=k
I hope this helped!
