an = a1r^(n-1)
a5 = a1 r^(5-1)
-6 =a1 r^4
a2 = a1 r^(2-1)
-48 = a1 r
divide
-6 =a1 r^4
---------------- yields 1/8 = r^3 take the cube root or each side
-48 = a1 r 1/2 = r
an = a1r^(n-1)
an = a1 (1/2)^ (n-1)
-48 = a1 (1/2) ^1
divide by 1/2
-96 = a1
an = -96 (1/2)^ (n-1)
the sum
Sn = a1[(r^n - 1/(r - 1)]
S18 = -96 [( (1/2) ^17 -1/ (1/2 -1)]
=-96 [ (1/2) ^ 17 -1 /-1/2]
= 192 * [-131071/131072]
approximately -192
The sequence is increasing by the previous number multiplied by negative 3 (x -3). With this information, the correct answer would be A. -648, 1944, 5832
Answer:
The other two sides are 7 units each.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle is isosceles.
The sides are in the ratio of

The hypotenuse is

So, the other two sides are 7 units each.
Answer:DC=7
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is written △ABC = △DBC. So the corresonding legs (the legs which are equal ) are as follows:
AC=DC AB=DB BC= BC
So DC=7 the same like AC
