A geometric sequence has a common ratio.

The formula for the nth term is

\sf{a_n =ar^{n-1} }

where,

  • an = nth term of the sequence,
  • a = first term of the sequence and
  • r = common ratio

<u>Given</u> -

  • A geometric sequence 2, -4, 8, ...

<u>To find</u> -

  • the 12th term of the given geometric sequence

<u>Solution</u> -

A.T.Q, a = 2 and r = -2

\rightarrow\sf{a_{12} =2(-2)^{12-1} }

\rightarrow\sf{a_{12 }=2(-2)^{11} }

\rightarrow\sf{a_{12} =2×(-2048) }

\rightarrow\bf{a_{12 }=-4096 }

<u>Hence, the 12th term is -4096</u>.

You would use the = sign because 
8+7-2^2=3^2+2
they both equal 11

Answer:

y=-x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

given that y = x^2 is the function.

For equivalent to -y, we can multiply this equation both the sides by -1

We get -y = -x^2

Hence option G is right.

Also y =x^2 is a parabola with vertex at origin open up.

Hence if F is selected we get -y =(-x)^2 = x^2, this will make the parabola open down and hence this option is wrong.

H: -y=-x is wrong because this represents a line but we had original equation as that of a parabola

J) -y = x^(-2) means x^2y =-1

This implies that rate of change of y = 2/x^3 but rate of change of y has to equal 2x since y = x^2 is original. Hence only option G is right.

Result:

5 /5  : 1 /2  = 5 /5 · 2 /1   = 5 · 2 /5 · 1   = 10 /5  = 2

To divide one fraction by another, invert (turn upside-down) the second fraction, then multiply.
