Answer:
Geometric sequence
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:
Leaves on tree this year (a) = 500
Rate of increase in leaves per year (r) = 40 % or 0.4
Let n be the number of years.
So we use exponential growth formula, i.e.
f(n) = a(1+r)^n
by putting the value, we get
f(n) = 500 ( 1+0.4)^n
or f(n) = 500 (1.4)^n
So, the common ration is 1.4.
Thus, it shows a geometric sequence.

So to solve for y, we need to get y alone on one side of the equation. So we are going to subtract 9x from both sides of the equation to get:
And since y is negative, we are going to divide both sides by -1 in order to make the y positive:
300 - 30 3/10 = 269 7/10
hope this helps
