Madelyn buys 3 bottles of orange juice at the corner store for a total cost of $2.31. If each bottle costs the same amount, how much is each bottle of juice?

$0.77

Step-by-step explanation:

$2.31/ 3

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
