Find the next two terms of this sequence
112, 28, 7,

1.75, 0.4375

Step-by-step explanation:

Note there is a common ratio between consecutive terms, that is

r = 28 ÷ 112 = 7 ÷ 28 = 0.25

Thus the sequence is geometric.

To obtain a term in the sequence multiply the previous term by 0.25

7 × 0.25 = 1.75

1.75 × 0.25 = 0.4375

The next 2 terms in the sequence are 1.75, 0.4375

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
