Jake decides to mow lawns for the first two weeks in June to earn money to buy a new bicycle . If the bicycle cost $153.73 and jake chargers $10.25 to mow each lawn, how many lawns will he need to mow in two weeks to buy the bicycle?

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

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
