Jordan wrote the following description. Three fewer than one fourth of x is 12. Write an equation to represent the description??

1/4x - 3 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When it says "three fewer," it means subtract three from one fourth of x. "Is" always means the equal sign. Knowing this, we get the equation:

1/4x - 3 = 12

a) justify

step-by-step explanation:

justifying is just part of everyday life. justify kind of means proof so i think the answer is a) justify.

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
