Answer the following 3 questions correctly i will know if this is wrong. i will report any incorrect answers! criteria for getting brainliest and not getting reported: - show work - explain if you can't show work why this answer is correct. - and make sure not to post random answers points are taken away when you are reported so don't think about answering it if you want only just want points to move up. 1. rewrite the following expression as a product of two factors. a) 40 + kl b) k + 40l c) 40k + 40l d) 40k + l 2. solve the equation. -14b = 56 a) -1/4 b) 4 c) -4 d) 1/4 3. solve the equation. 21 = -7n a) 1/3 b) 3 c) -1/3 d) -3

1. C) 40k + 40l (Multiply 40 by each of the factors in the parentheses and show as an addition expression.)

2. C) -4 (Divide the two numbers.)

3.D) -3

1. C) 40K +40I

Reasoning: It wants the product (Multiplication) of two factors( k and I)

2. C) -4

-14b=56(-14b/-14 and 56/-14)

b=-4

-14(-4)=56

3. D) -3

21=-7n(-7n/-7 and 21/-7)

n=-3

-7(-3)=21

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
