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
Answer:i dont know to do this stuff but i think you have to divide i think ???

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
So, a radical is basically a fractional power.
Square roots are numbers to the 1/2.
For example, the square root of 4 is just 
, or 2.
So for cube root, the 1/2 changes to a 1/3.
This can then be rewritten as 
or
Answer:
4 x (7-x)
Step-by-step explanation:
4 times (multiply) the difference (subtraction) of 7 and a number (seeing as how you don't know that number use a variable, x)
