Jamie told his math teacher: "give me any absolute value, and i can tell you two numbers that have that absolute value." is jamie correct? for any given absolute value, will there always be two numbers that have that absolute value?

Jamie was correct in saying that there could be two numbers who have the same absolute value.

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
