Question

Which pattern could be used to create the sequence?

500, -100, 20, -4

A: Multiply the previous term by -5
B: Divide the previous term by -5
C: Subtract 600 from the previous term
D: Add -200 to the previous term

Answer 1

the answer is B: Divide the previous term by -5. 500÷-5=-100, -100÷-5=20, 20÷-5=-4 so the pattern would be 500, -100, 20, -4.
