You start with f(x)=8-3(3)². Then, going in order of PEMDAS, you start with your exponent. So you have f(x)=8-3(9). Then multiplication, f(x)=8-27. Then your subtraction. f(x)=-19

The nth term is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
an=1(2)^(n-1)
a1=1
r=2
the sum of a geometric seequence is

a1=1
r=2
we want to find

(since we minus 1, the highest exponet is 9 so add 1 to make it correct)



See the attached picture for 2 options for question 1 and 2 depending on how the fractions are written.
Question #3:
17 = -13 - 8x
Add 13 to each side:
30 = -8x
Divide both sides by -8:
X = 30 / -8
X = -3 3/4
