Step-by-step explanation:
this is clearly not a linear sequence (the terms don't have the same difference).
so, it has to be a geometric sequence.
the common ratio is r.
s2 = s1 × r
16 = 64 × r
r = 16/64 = 1/4
control :
s3 = s2×r
4 = 16 × 1/4 = 4
correct.
Answer:
x + y = 32
x = y + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of two numbers is 32:
x + y = 32
One number is 8 more than the other:
x = y + 8
Blue: = because the equal sign is stating that it’s the same.
