Use the sequence {−1,171,875;−234,375;−46,875;−9375,…} to answer the question.


What is the explicit rule that describes the sequence?


an=−1,171,875(125)n−1

an=1,171,875(−15)n−1

an=−1,171,875(15)n−1

an=1,171,875(−115)n−1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

an = −1,171,875(1/5)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is geometric sequence since they have the same common ratio r. The nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as;

an = ar^n-1

n is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

a is the first term

From the sequence;

a = −1,171,875

r = −234,375 /−1,171,875 = -46,875/−234,375 = 0.2

r = 1/5

Substitute the values in the formula;

an = −1,171,875(1/5)^n-1

Hence the required explicit formula is an = −1,171,875(1/5)^n-1

Answer 2

The explicit rule that describes the sequence is [tex]\rm a_n = -1,171,875 (\dfrac{1}{5})^{n - 1 }[/tex]. Then the correct option is C.

What is a sequence?

A sequence is a list of elements that have been ordered in a sequential manner, such that members come either before or after.

The sequence is {−1,171,875;−234,375;−46,875;−9375,…}

The given sequence is the geometric sequence since they have the same common ratio r. Then the nth term of the geometric sequence will be

[tex]\rm a_n = a\ r^{n-1}[/tex]

Where

Number of terms (n)

First-term (a) = -1,171,875

Common ratio (r) = 1/5

Then nth term will be

[tex]\rm a_n = -1,171,875 (\dfrac{1}{5})^{n - 1 }[/tex]

The explicit rule that describes the sequence is [tex]\rm a_n = -1,171,875 (\dfrac{1}{5})^{n - 1 }[/tex]. Then the correct option is C.

A bank charges a fee of 0.5% per month for having a checking account. Stephani’s account has $325 in it. Which function models the balance of Stephani’s account, B(t), in dollars, as a function of time, t, in months?

a: B(t) = 325(0.0995)t

b: B(t) = 325(0.005)t

c: B(t) = 0.05(325)t

d: B(t) = 325 + 12(0.005)t

Answers

The required, function that models the balance of Stephani's account is

[tex]B(t) = 325(0.005)^t[/tex]. Option B is correct.

The function that models the balance of Stephani's account, B(t), in dollars, as a function of time, t, in months, can be determined using the given information.

Given:

Bank charges a fee of 0.5% per month for having a checking account.

Stephani's account has $325 in it.

The function that models the balance of Stephani's account, B(t), in dollars, as a function of time, t, in months, is:

b: [tex]B(t) = 325(0.005)^t[/tex]

In this function, the initial balance is $325, and the bank charges a fee of 0.5% per month, which is equivalent to 0.005 as a decimal. The exponent "t" represents the number of months, and with each passing month, the balance is reduced by 0.5%.

Kevin has these shirts in his closet.
• 3 blue shirts
• 5 red shirts
• 3 purple shirts
• 4 white shirts
Kevin will randomly choose one shirt, not put it back and then choose another shirt. What is the probability that he will choose a red shirt and then a white shirt?

Answers

Since there are a total of 15 shirts,

5 red shirts+4 white shirts= 9 shirts total

3 blue shirts+3 purple shirts= 6 shirts total

The odds that you would pick a red shirt and then a white are 3:2

3 being the 9 red and white shirts combined.

2 being the 6 purple and blue shirts combined.

9:6 simplified=3:2

9/3=3

6/3=2

3:2

Answer: The odds that you would pick a red shirt then a white shirt would be 3:2 or 60%

find the buying price if the selling price is 240 and profit is 20 percent​

Answers

Answer:

192

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find 20% of 240.

So write 20% as 20 over 240 in fraction form.

[tex]\frac{20}{240}[/tex]

Since, finding the fraction of a number is same as multiplying the fraction with the number, we have

[tex]\frac{20}{100}[/tex] of 240 = [tex]\frac{20}{100}[/tex] × 240

Therefore, the answer is 48

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 20÷100×240 which will give you 48 as the answer.

Now since it  wants to know how much you paid for the goods you do 240-48=192

So since a company is selling goods with a 20% profit

That means they bought it from somewhere else

Because they had to be manufactured

It wants how much the company paid the company that manufactured the goods

I hope this helped. Some resources that are helpful to look at in case of any more confusion are:

Which of the following shows the polynomial below written in descending
order?

Answers

Answer:

A. 4x¹² + 9x⁷ + 3x³ -x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

==================================================================

To write a polynomial in descending order, we write the terms with higher degrees, or exponents, first.

3x³ + 9x⁷ -x + 4x¹²

4x¹² has the highest degree, so it is written as the first term.

⇒4x¹²

9x⁷ has the next highest degree, so it is written next.

⇒4x¹² + 9x⁷

3x³ has the next highest degree, so it is written next.

⇒4x¹² + 9x⁷ + 3x³

-x has the lowest degree, so it is written last.

⇒4x¹² + 9x⁷ + 3x³ -x

4x¹² + 9x⁷ + 3x³ -x

Two thirds of the money in my pocket is 50 cents. a, what is one third of the money in my pocket​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Set up an equation you can solve from the wording of the question:

(2/3)*m = 50, where "m" represents the money in your pocket.

2.) Solve for that equation:

m = 50*(3/2) = 150/2 = 75, so now you know the money you have in your pocket is 75 cents

3.) Multiply the money you have in your pocket by 1/3 to find 1/3 of the money you have in your pocket:
