Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = - 2
an = a1 * r^(n - 1)
a6 = -486
-486 = - 2 * r^(6-1) Divide by 2
243 = r^5
The largest value that r could be is 3.
4^5 = 1024
(243)^(1/5) = 3
So the general formula
an = -2*(3)^(n - 1)
Answer:
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48
Step-by-step explanation:
4*1 = 4
4*2 = 8
4*3 = 12
and so on...
I assume you are asking one of three things, so I will answer all of them.
if you are asking what is 1/2 of 312, then multiply 312 by 1/2. 312 is really just 312/1, so

we multiply fractions by multiplying straight across

if you were asking what part of 3 1/2 is 1/2 then we have to recognize what 3 1/2 is as an improper fraction. to do this, we convert 3 into halves. how many halves of pizza are there in 3 whole pizzas? 6. so we have 6 halves and one half, which is a total of 7 halves.

now, we do the same thing as the first problem

if you were asking what is half of 3.12, then we convert 1/2 to a decimal and multiply
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
-34x+6=-28
-6 -6
-34x=-34
-34 -34
x=1
Subtract 6 from both sides. on the left the 6 will be canceled out and on the right -28-6= -34
Than you divide -34 on both sides on the left the -34 will be canceled and on the right -34 divided bt-34 is positive 1. So x equals 1.
