Stop and Shop has the better deal, as it is 0.24 cents for each apple if you divide 0.96 by 4, while Path Mark is 0.25 cents.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
an = a1r^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms.
From the given sequence,
a1 = - 5
r = 15/- 5 = - 3
Therefore, the explicit rule for this sequence is
an = - 5(- 3)^n - 1
