The first term, a, is 2. The common ratio, r, is 4. Thus,
a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).
Check: What's the first term? Let n=1. Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8. Is that correct? No.
Try this instead:
a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1). Is this correct? Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2? 2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2. YES.
The desired explicit formula is a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.

It is required to find the 12th term of a GP. The formula of the nth term is given by :

Here, n =12
So,

or

So, the 12th term of the GP is 53144.
Answer:
1. Slope = -4/5
2. Slope = 2/3
3. Slope = 0
4. Slope = 3/-4
5. Slope = 7/-12
6. Slope = 1/2
7. Slope = -2/0 --> Undefined
8. Slope = 3/-2
9. Slope = 5/-4
10. Slope = 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so I'm assuming that you want the slope for all the two points. Basically, the formula for slope is rise/run, or y2-y1/x2-x1. Solve using that. For example, for number 1, it would be:
10-2/1-11 = 8/-10 = -4/5
