Answer:

n = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

You must write and solve a symbolic equation.

n - 6 = 5(n + 2), or

n - 6 = 5n + 10

Combining like terms, we get:

-16 = 4n,

and so n = -4

Write a rule for a geometric sequence that has -6 as its first term and a common ratio of 2. What is the tenth term of this sequ

slega [8]

The general form of the geometric sequence is $a_{n} = a_{1} (r) ^{n-1}$ , where a sub n is the number term you're looking for (we're looking for the tenth term). a sub 1 is the first term in the sequence (ours is -6), r is the common ratio, and n-1 is the numbered term you're looking for minus 1. Our formula then looks like this: $a_{10} =-6(2) ^{10-1}$ . Simplify it to $a_{10} =-6(2)^9$ . Take 2 to the 9th power then multiply it by -6 to get -3072. C is your answer.
