Given the geometric sequence with the first three terms shown below, answer the following questions.

4,-8, 16,...

Write the explicit formula for this sequence.

What is the 12th term of the sequence?

PLEASE ANSWER I HAVE AN IMAGE INCLUDED IF NEEDED !!

Step-by-step explanation:

r = -8/4 = -2

t1 = 4

the general formula :

tn = t1. r^(n-1)

tn = 4. (-2)^(n-1)

t12 = 4. (-2) ^(12-1)

= 4. (-2)^11

= 4. (-2,048)

= - 8,192

step-by-step explanation:

.6 is 1/2 of 12

the answer is actually d. i just took the test

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
