Answer:
-62.8 is the answer .......................
An item that costs $30, when discounted 15 percent, will cost $25.5. The easiest way of calculating discount is, in this case, to multiply the normal price $30 by 15 then divide it by one hundred. So, the discount is equal to $4.5. To calculate the sales price, simply deduct the discount of $4.5 from the original price $30 then get $25.5 as the sales price.
To find n-therm of a geometric sequence, we are going to use the formula

where:

is the term we are looking for

is the first term

is the ratio

is the position of the number in the sequence
From the question we now that

,

, and

. Lets replace those values into our formula to get:



We can conclude that in our geometric sequence

; therefore, the answer is
A.
His ending balance would be $500. If you subtract $3,000 from $1,000 you get $2,000..then when you subtract $2,000 from $1,500 you get $500!!
