Find the common ratio by dividing.
16 / 8 = 2
8 / a = 2
2 / b = 2
The common ratio is 2.
Since we need to find the values of a and b, use the common ratio to solve for them.
8 / 2 = 4 (a)
2 / 2 = 1 (b)
Now, we know that first 5 terms.
We can solve for the 8th term using the previous terms and the common ratio.
6th term: 1 / 2 = 0.5
7th term: 0.5 / 2 = 0.25
8th term: 0.25 / 2 = 0.125
Part A: 2
Part B: a = 4, b = 1
Part C: 0.125
Best of Luck!

as you notice above, is the first-row components from A, multiplying all the columns subsequently on B, and you add the products of that row, that gives you one component on the AB matrix
in the one above, we end up with a 2x3 AB matrix
Answer:
a=2
b=0
c=12
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of a quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c=0
Here's the given equation:
2x²+12=0
You might notice that the term bx is not there (there is just ax² and c). That means that b is 0.
The term 2x² is the term ax² in this equation. The coefficient in the term is 2, so that means that a is 2
12 has no variable, so that means it'll be c in the equation.
Hope this helps!

B..........................................
Well first we need to make our fractions have a common denominator. Since 24 is the higher one we will turn 6 into 24. In order to do that we have to multiply our top number and bottom number by 4. 4x6=24 and 3x4=12 therefore our new fraction is 12/24. Now add 6 and 3 which is 9. After adding 6 and 3 we add our fractions. Adding fractions is kind of odd because you only add the top numbers. So, we add 10 and 12 to get 22. Our final step is figuring out if we can simplify the fraction which in this care we can! So, in order to simplify this fraction we divide by 2 which will then make our fraction 11/12 which can not be simplified. So your final answer would be 9 and 11/12. Hope this helps! :)
