This is a geometric sequence because each term is a constant multiple, called the common ratio, of the previous term. In this case the common ratio, noted as "r", is:
8/-2=-32/8=128/-32=r=-4
The first term is -2
Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:
a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number.
Since we know r and a for this problem already we can say:
a(n)=-2(-4)^(n-1)
The answer to this question is 8.6 or c
Answer:
1) -2.13
2) 2.57
3) 33
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
3(8 + 5h) = -28 Distribute the 3
24 + 15h = -28 Subtract 24 from both sides of the equation
15h = -32 Divide both sides by 15 and round
h = - 2.13
2)
19 = 7(3n - 5) Distribute the 7
19 = 21n - 35 Add 35 to both sides of the equation
54 = 21n Divide both sides of the equation by 21
2.57 = n
3)
6s - 7s = -33 Combine the s's
-s = -33 Multiply both sides by -1
s = 33
