Answer:

x=27/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2-1/3x=-4

subtract 1/2 from both sides

1/2+-1/3x -1/2=-4 -1/2

Group like terms

-1/3 ⋅ x +1/2+(-1/2)=-4 -1/2

Combine the fractions

-1/3 ⋅ x+0=-4 -1/2

Convert the integer into a fraction

-1/3 ⋅ x=-8/2 -1/2

Combine.

-1/3 ⋅ x= -9/2

Isolate the x:

-1/3x ⋅ 3/-1= -9/2 ⋅ 3/-1

1x=-9/2 ⋅ 3/-1

x= -9 ⋅ -3/2

x=27/2 as your answer

1.2, 3, 7.5, 18.75, ...<br><br> Which formula can be used to describe the sequence?

Nady [450]

Answer:

The formula is:

$a_n=1.2(\frac{5}{2})^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric sequences are those in which the division between the terms $a_{n + 1}$ and $a_n$ of the sequence are equal to a constant common reason called "r"

The geometrics secencias have the following form:

$a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}$

Where $a_1$ is the first term of the sequence

In this sequence we have the following terms

1.2, 3, 7.5, 18.75

Then notice that:

$\frac{3}{1.2}=\frac{5}{2}\\\\\frac{7.5}{3}=\frac{5}{2}\\\\\frac{18.75}{7.5}=\frac{5}{2}$

Then:

$r=\frac{5}{2}$ and $a_1=1.2$

Finally the formula is:

$a_n=1.2(\frac{5}{2})^{n-1}$
