Find a formula for the 4th term of the following G. P.S a) 1, 2,4 b)50, 20, 8 Pls explain very well.. Thank you.

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a geometric sequence is

an = a1 * r^ (n-1)  where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio

The common ratio is  found by taking the second term and dividing it by the first term

a) 1, 2,4

a1 = 1

r = 2/1 = 2

an = 1 * ( 2) ^ (n-1)

Let n = 4

a4 = 1 * 2^ (4-1) = 1 * 2^3 = 8

b)50, 20, 8

a1 = 50

r = 50/20= 5/2

an = 50 * ( 5/2) ^ (n-1)

Let n = 4

a4 = 50 * (5/2)^ (4-1) = 50 * (5/2)^3 = 3125/4

step-by-step explanation:

25 questions , because they start with 100.  

350-100=250 .  

. 250/10=25

step-by-step explanation:

first take off 100, then what x 10 = 250? that is your answer. (25)
