What are the explicit equation and domain for a geometric sequence with a first term of 5 and a second term of −10? an = 5(−2)n − 1; all integers where n ≥ 1 an = 5(−2)n − 1; all integers where n ≥ 0 an = 5(−15)n − 1; all integers where n ≥ 1 an = 5(−15)n − 1; all integers where n ≥ 0

is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a geometric sequence the I term is 5 and second term is -10

If first term is a, then II term is ar where r is the common ratio

Hence r = II term/I term = -10/5 =-2

Using the geometric sequence formula for nth term

we have

Substitute to get nth term as

, for all integers n>=1

Hence option A is right answer

x =±sqrt(1/3)

step-by-step explanation:

x+4/6x=1/x

multiply each side by 6x to get rid of the fractions

6x*(x+4/6x)=1/x*6x

distribute

6x^2 +4 = 6

subtract 4 from each side

6x^2 +4-4 = 6-4

6x^2 =2

divide by 6

6x^2/6 = 2/6

x^2 = 1/3

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(1/3)

x =±sqrt(1/3)
