Jesse got that as an answer because he only multiples 2X to 2 and not to 8.
Answer:
The required sequence is
. The average rate of change from n = 1 to n = 3 is -7.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given graph it is clear that the sequence is a GP because the all terms are half of their previous terms.
Here, 

The common ratio of GP is 1/2.



The first term of the sequence is 20.
The formula for sequence is

Where a is first term and r is common difference.
The required sequence is

The formula for rate of change is

The average rate of change from n = 1 to n = 3 is



Therefore the required sequence is
. The average rate of change from n = 1 to n = 3 is -7.5.
#22 is Ian. #23.a. is 77%. b. is Yes. c. is 16.
The solution is when the two functions meet x=2. The green function is f(x), and the red is g(x).
Solve the equation
So first we subtract 8 from both sides because we apply the inverse operation.
-2x+8=-16
-8 -8
Now we apply it and re write the equation
-2x=-24
Now the inverse operation for multiplication is division, so we apply it.
-2x=-24
------------
-2 -2
We are left with x=8
So our final answer is x=8
Check our work
-2(8)+8=-16
CORRECT ANSWER. :)
