Answer:

A term at position n can be expressed as \[2*3^{n-1}\]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given geometric sequence is 2, 6, 18, 54, …

Starting term = 2

Second term = 6

So second term is 3 times the first term.

Similarly, Third term = 18

This is 3 times the second term, that is , 3 * 6

Fourth term is is 54.

This is 3 times the third term, that is , 3 * 18

Generalizing, a term in the sequence can be expressed as \[2*3^{n-1}\]

where n represents the position of the term in the sequence.

Brianna typically sells candy bars for $4.70. During a sale she prices them at $3.30. What is the approximate percent discount o
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

One simple way of finding out discounts is to simplify our answer by starting with 10% and subtracting from that.

If the original price were to have a 10% discount, it would be 4.70/10 for .47 per 10% off.

10% gives us 4.23, so let's take another 10% off by doing 4.23-.47, which is equal to 3.76. While lower, it's not our answer so lets do another 10%

3.76-4.7 = $3.29

With a total of 3 10%'s taken off, or in this case, 30% off, we can conclude that the discounted prices of $3.29 is 30% of the original price.
