This is a linear function, of the kind y = mx + b
where x is the number of visit, b is the weight when x = 0, and m is the predicted change of weight for every visit.
m = - 4 ounces / visit, which must be converted to pounds (the negative sign indicates that the change is a decrease)
1 lb = 16 ounces = 4 ounces = 0.25 lb
Then m = - 0.25 lb / visit.
Now, for x = 1, y = 126 => 126 = - 0.25(1) + b => b = 126 + 0.25 = 126.25
Then the function is y = 126.25 - 0.25x
Now round to the nearest tenth:
y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer: y = 126.3 - 0.3x

Given:
The table for a geometric sequence.
To find:
The formula for the given sequence and the 10th term of the sequence.
Solution:
In the given geometric sequence, the first term is 1120 and the common ratio is:
The nth term of a geometric sequence is:
Where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Putting 
, we get
Therefore, the required formula for the given sequence is .
We need to find the 10th term of the given sequence. So, substituting 
in the above formula.
Therefore, the 10th term of the given sequence is 2.1875.
