We take the function as a sequence
Term 1 ⇒ 5
Term 2 ⇒ 4
Term 3 ⇒ 3.2
Between terms, there is a common ratio of ⁴/₅
We get it from here:
Term 2 / Term 1 =

Term 3 / Term 2 =

=

When a sequence has a common ratio between term, the sequence is a Geometric Sequence

Where

is the first term,

is the common ratio, and

is the term number
We have:

and

The formula for the function is
Answer: See below
Step-by-step explanation:
In scientific notation, you can tell that it is greater or less than 1 by looking at the exponent. The scientific notation looks like _.__×10⁻. Note: The little lines are blanks for you to fill in. The dot at the bottom is a decimal.
If the exponent on top of 10 is positive, you are moving the decimal to the right side, making the number greater.
If the exponent on top of 10 is negative, you are moving the decimal to the left side, making it smaller and smaller.
By those statements, you can tell if a number is greater or less than 1 by looking at the exponent.
80 would be your answer for this question

Step-by-step explanation:
Express 27 in terms of cubes, 27 = 3³:

From trinomial expansion:

open first two brackets to get a quadratic equation:

expand further:

take y to be 3, then substitute:
