okay for 28 i don't think i did it right but this is what i came up with 28. Find the first, fourth, and eighth terms of the sequence. a(n)=-2X2^-1 okay that's power to one just to let you know ugh i don't like doing math on the computer ... 1st A(1)= -2x 2^-1 A(1)= -4 cause two to...

okay so the first one is okay what about the other two did i do those right?

omg i did a blonde ugh so instead it would be A(1)=+ -3 (1-1)(-2.2) -3 (0)(-2.2) -3 (0) 0 Right?

i did how?

it is right the way you wrote it i think i just skipped wrighting it but i don't know whay its not (-3)*(-2.2) its exactly how its written in the book. ugh i am so confused >.<

okay i tried number 27 out so here it is 27. Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule. A (n) + -3 (n-1)(-2.2) 1st term A(1) + -3 (1-1)(-2.2) -3 (0) (-2.2) -3(-2.2) 6.6 4th Term A(4)...

well i just figured out 29 and 30 but i don't know how to do the two terms one i don't know the set up or how to do it even if you just would show me wiht a different set of numbers. i also don't under what they ask for 25 its not that i was just the answers its the process i don't know ugh!
