Answer:

Tn = 4(-6)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an explicit formula for an, the nth term of the sequence 4, -24, 144, ....

The sequence is a geometric sequence

Tn = ar^n-1

a is the first term

a = 4

r = -24/4 =144/-24

r = -6

Substitute

Tn = 4(-6)^n-1

What is the value expression 8+24 divided by (2 times 6) - 4

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mixed operations there is a particular order that must be followed.

Using the order set out in the acronym PEMDAS

P - Parenthesis ( brackets ), E- Exponents ( powers ), M - Multiplication, D - Division, A- Addition, S - Subtraction

8 + 24 ÷ (2 × 6) - 4

= 8 + 24 ÷ 12 - 4 ← parenthesis

= 8 + 2 - 4 ← division

= 10 - 4 ← addition

= 6 ← subtraction
