Answer:
it seems like the first term is -64, so lets write the formula accordingly:
a_n = a1(r)^(n-1)
where 'n' is the number of terms
a1 is the first term of the sequence
'r' is the ratio
the ratio is 
because -64 * = 16 and so on...
the explicit formula is :
= 
Answer:
20, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume total number of students registered is n
Last week n/4 people are absent
so people present are n - n/4 = <u>3n/4</u>
Today after return of Jen 1/5 n are absent
so people present are n - n/5 = 4n/5
which is also equal to last week present people + 1 (Jen)
= 3n/4 + 1
= (3n + 4) / 4
so (3n + 4) / 4 = 4n/5
=> 3n + 4 = 4n/5 * 4
=> (3n + 4) * 5 = 16n
=> 15n + 20 = 16n
=> 20 = n
=> n = 20
So total students registered for class is 20
today no of people absent = n/5 = 20/5 = 4
Answer:
try symnolab it helps a lot with math but the answer is 29/1000 0r 0.029
Step-by-step explanation: Hopes this helps :)
15%=3
5%=1
5(20)=100
1(20)=20
So, there are 20 students in the class.
