What is a8 for the geometric sequence 6,561;−2,187;729;−243;….

In geometric sequence you divide the terms. As I will show you the calculations step by step. Hopefully this becomes clear and helpful to you

Step-by-step explanation:

-2187÷6561

= -0.3333...

a8=a1 r^8-1

=(4374)(-0.3)^8-1

=(4374)(-0.3)^7

=(4374)(-4.572473708×10^-4)

=-2

Therefore a8= -2

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

step-by-step explanation:

formula

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

let the line segment ab with a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2)

a point(x,y) divide ab in the ratio, 2: 3 the x coordinate can be written as

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

here p=2 and w = 2+3

therefore,

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

similarly y coordinate y = y1 + 2/5(y2 - y1)
