Answer:

Betty is 27. Her son is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use b to represent Betty's age. We will use s to represent her son's age.

This year:

b = 3s

In 12 years' time:

b + 12 = 2(s + 12) - 3

b + 12 = 2s + 24 - 3

b + 12 = 2s + 21

b = 2s + 9

We know that b = 3s, so we can substitute this value into our equation.

3s = 2s + 9

s = 9

b = 3 x 9

b = 27

What is the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 2, -4, 8, -16, ​
Marianna [84]

Answer:

the answer is f(x) = n*(-2)

ratio is the wrong word to use, it is for contolled variation in probability. a sequence is controlled by what is known as a function - f(x) is the symbol for a function

Step-by-step explanation:

the following number of the previous one in the sequence is derived by the function f(x)=n*(-2)

2 x -2 = -4 (positive x negative = negative)

-4 × -2 = 8 (negative x negative = positive)

8 x -2 = -16 (positive x negative = negative)

so in the sequence, the trend of -,+ double will go on
