Which formula can be used to describe the sequence? f(x) = 1.2(2.5)x – 1 f(x) = 2.5(1.2)x – 1 f(x) = 1.2(2.5)x f(x) = 2.5(1.2)x

The formula which used to describe the sequence is f(x)=1.2(2.5)ˣ⁻¹.

The given sequence is 1.2,3,7.5,18.75.

In geometric series, the ratio of two consecutive terms remains the same and this ratio is known as common ratio. a₁ is the first term of a geometric sequence and r is the common ratio, then the general term of the geometric sequence is of the form:

f(x)=a₁⋅rˣ⁻¹.

In the given sequence, a₁=1.2, a₂=3, a₃=7.5 and a₄=18.75.

Find the common ratio by

r=(aₙ₊₁)÷aₙ

r=a₂÷a₁

r=3÷1.2

r=2.5

Substitute the values in the general formula of geometric sequence.

f(x)=(1.2)(2.5)ˣ⁻¹

Hence, the formula which used to describe the sequence 1.2,3,7.5,18.75 is f(x)=(1.2)(2.5)ˣ⁻¹.

Answer:

(5,7.5) (12,18) (18,27)

Step-by-step explanation:

It costs $1.50 per cupcake.

y = 1.5x, where x is the amount of cupcakes and y is the amount of money in dollars.

7.5 = 1.5 times 5

18 = 1.5 times 12

27 = 1.5 times 18

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

2m - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

First week minutes = m

Second week minutes = (2 * first week minutes - 20)

Second week = 2m - 20

Therefore, the expression for the number of practice minutes for the second week is :

2m - 20
