PreCalc help with sums. I will mark brainliest. (also can you explain WHY you got what answer you got? Thanks)

8

Step-by-step explanation:

a = -4

r = 16/-4 = -4

Sn = a(r^n - 1)/(r - 1)

52428 = -4[(-4)^n - 1]/(-4-1)

(-4)^n - 1 = 65535

(-4)^n = 65536

Means n is even

(4)^n = 65536

nln(4) = ln(65536)

n = 8

-3.396 = -3.4

-0.708 = -0.7

0.304 = 0.3

0.955 = 1

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
