The original functions are: f(n) = 500 and g(n) = [9/10]^(n-1)
A geometric sequence combining them is: An = f(n)*g(n) = 500*[9/10]^(n-1):
Some terms are:
A1= 500
A2 = 500*[9/10]
A3 = 500*[9/10]^2
A4 = 500*[9/10]^3
....
A11 = 500*[9/10]^10 ≈ 174.339
Answer: the third option, An = 500[9/10]^(n-1); A11 = 174.339
To answer this, you multiple 1000 by 7,234 because each box comes with 1000, so if there are 7234 boxes, then you multiple the stirrers by the # of boxes
You started with $452. Hope I helped and good luck(:
Step-by-step explanation:
Im not sure if its supposed y = -2x + 1 or y = 2x + 1 but I'll solve the problem for both.
First for y = -2x + 1
Since the line has to be parallel to y = -2x + 1
the slopes would be the same.
so, so far the equation would be
y = -2x + b
now we substitute (5,2) into the equation
2 = -2(5) + b
2 = -10 + b (Add 10 to both sides of the equation)
+10 +10
12 = b
Now that we solved for b
The equation would be
y = -2x + 12
^^ This equation is parallel to y = -2x + 1
Now to solve for an equation parallel to y = 2x + 1
Both equations would have the same slope
So far we would have
y = 2x + b
Now we solve for be by substituting the point (5,2)
2 = 2(5) + b
2 = 10 + b (subtract 10 from both sides)
-10 -10
-8 = b
After solving for b
The equation is
y = 2x - 8
This equation is parallel to y = 2x + 1
