Answer:
answer is 90 for first term
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the terms be
First term x
We will use the formula s∞=x/1−r to find the sum of an infinite geometric series, where −1<r<1.
We know the sum and the common ratio, so we'll be solving for x where r =4/5
s∞=x/1−r
450=x/1−4/5
450=x/1/5
450=5x
x=90
this is the first term x1 = 90
we know that common ratio is 4/5, so multiplying the first term by factor 4/5 to get the second term
90 x 4/5= 72 second term
Answer: 8x
Step-by-step explanation: add it normally but carry the x
Let x= last years salary. And 1.05 represents pay raise which 100% plus the 5%. 1.05(x)= 39375 you solve for x which gives you 37500
