Hi Timothy,

1. Write a rule for the sequence.

8, -1, -10, -19...

A. Start with 8 and add -9 repeatedly

B. star with -9 and add 8 repeatedly

C. start with 8 and add 9 repeatedly

D. start with 8 and subtract -9 repeatedly---

Answer - So you have to start with -9 then keep subtracting 9. Thats what I think the answer is but the answer is not stated in the question. Let me know on what that is. The closest answer is probably either B or D.

2. find the next three terms of the sequence.

-6, -24, -96, -384

1) -768, -1536 , -3072

2) -768, -3072, -12288

3) -1536, -6144 , -24567

4) -1536, -9216, -36864

The rule is multiplying by 4!

So the correct answer is 3) -1536, -6144 , -24567

δabc ≅ δdcb by sas because

db ≅ ac . . given (side)

bc ≅ bc . . reflexive property (side)

∠dbc ≅ ∠ acb . . alternate interior angles where transversal bc crosses parallel lines bd and ac (included angle)
