-3(-5)+7y=5(-5)+2y solve for y

y= -17/5 or -3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

-8+7y= -25+2y

5y= -17

y= -17/5 or -3.4

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

cosine
