What is the first term of the geometric sequence presented in the table below? n 3 8 an 112 −3,584 hint: an = a1(r)n − 1, where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. a1 = −28 a1 = −2 a1 = -1/2 a1 = 28

Fron the table given:

A3 = 112,
A8 = - 3,584

An = A1 *r ^ (n-1)

=> A3 = A1 (r^2) = 112

A8 = A1(r^7) = - 3,584

=> - 3584 / 112 = (r^7) / (r^2)

=> (r^5) = - 32

=> r = - 2

=> A1 (- 2)^2 = 112

=> A1 = 112 / 4 = 28

a1 = 28

You would need a laid out graph for this but could you provide a picture of just a graph? i can give stepssolve for y.subtract 4xdivide by -1 (opposites)graph slope intercept formcheck each point to see if it’s on the graph
