Determine the explicit formula for the geometric sequence
represented by the graph
F(x)=(1/4)^x f(x)= 48(1/4)^x^-1 f(x)=(4)x f(x)=48(4)^x-1

f(x) = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph extract the points represented by the dots, that is

(1, 48), (2, 12), (3, 3)

The sequence is 48, 12, 3,

The explicit formula for a geometric sequence is

f(x) = a

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a = 48 and r = 12 ÷ 48 = , thus

f(x) = 48

22 and 22

step-by-step explanation:

10 plus 12 equals 22.

12 plus 10 also equals 22 because regardless of what order they're in, they're gonna equal the same thing.
