What is the slope for (3,−1) and (4,7)

The values of the slope and y-intercept are m=8 and b=−25

m=8

b=−25

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

3, 12, 48, 384, 1536, 6144, 24576, 98304

step-by-step explanation:

just keep timing it by 4.
