Its super duper easy but im having some trouble
so can someone me?

together = add

add the fractions

3 7/10 + 5 9/10

add the whole numbers first

3+5=8

add the fractions

7/10+9/10= 16/10

8 16/10

reduce 16/10 divide by 2

16/2= 8

10/2= 5

8 8/5

whole number changes to 9

8-5=3

denominator stays the same

9 3/5

9 3/5

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
