since the selling price is 89.83 and the cost of is 76, the tax amount is 89.83 - 76 = 13.83.

if we take 76 to be the 100%, what is 13.83 off of it in percentage?

$\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 76 & 100\\ 13.83& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{76}{13.83}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 76x=1383\implies x=\cfrac{1383}{76}\implies x\approx 18.20$

For A:

You add the probabilities to get the answer to A: = .75, or 3/4

Note that the probability of ALL THREE of them hitting would be 1/3 x 1/4 x 1/5.

For B:

2/3 and 3/4 is the probability of the other two people MISSING (the remainder of 1/3, 1/4)

1.0 = 100% chance to hit the target, so 1.0 x 2/3 x 3/4 = 1/2

Mark's chance of hitting is 1/5, so do 1/2 x 1/5, = 1/10

The wording of this question is a bit confusing... You can't write a sequence in sigma notation, but rather a series or sum. I think the question is asking you to write the sum of the sequence,

$\dfrac12,\dfrac14,\dfrac18,\ldots,\dfrac1{64}$

which would be

$\dfrac12+\dfrac14+\dfrac18+\cdots+\dfrac1{64}$

in sigma notation.

To do this, notice that the denominator in each term is a power of 2, starting with $2^1=2$ and ending with $2^6=64$ . So in sigma notation, this series is

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^6\frac1{2^n}$

We are asked to sum the two trinomials $(-4f^3-5f+16)+(4f^2-f+9)$ . We can start by using the distributive property to remove the parenthesis, giving us $-4f^3-5f+16+4f^2-f+9$ . Next, when we combine like terms, we get $\boxed{-4f^3+4f^2-6f+25}$ . Hope this helped!
