Well, 4 + 6 + 9 = 19, so $14 is a reasonable answer. If we have $19 assuming that each flower costs $1, then if the estimate is $14, that means that each flower is less than $1, which makes sense. Assuming that all of the flowers cost the same, then each flower would be about 74 cents. This would make sense considering that you are buying tulips, roses, and carnations. I really hope this helps; if not, good luck on your homework.

Which formula can be used to find the nth term of a geometric sequence where the fifth term is 1/6 and the common ratio is 1/4?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fifth term of a geometric sequence = \frac{1}{16}

Common ratio (r) = ¼

Required:

Formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence

Solution:

Step 1: find the first term of the sequence

Formula for nth term of a geometric sequence = ar^{n - 1}, where:

a = first term

r = common ratio = ¼

Thus, we are given the 5th term to be ¹/16, so n here = 5.

Input all these values into the formula to find a, the first term.

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{5 - 1}

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{4}

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{256}

\frac{1}{16} = \frac{a}{256}

Cross multiply

1*256 = a*16

Divide both sides by 16

\frac{256}{16} = \frac{16a}{16}

16 = a

a = 16

Step 2: input the value of a and r to find the nth term formula of the sequence

nth term = ar^{n - 1}

nth term = 16*\frac{1}{4}^{n - 1}

a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}

What is the difference between 12/8 and 3/4?
Katen [24]

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference means subtraction

12/8 - 3/4

We need a common denominator of 8

12/8 - 3/4 * 2/2

12/8  - 6/8

 6/8

Divide by 2 in the numerator and denominator

 3/4

In the inequality 6a+4b>10, what could be the possible value of a if b=2?
Arlecino [84]

We are given the following inequality:

6a+4b>10

If we replace b = 2, we get:

\begin{gathered} 6a+4(2)>10 \\ 6a+8>10 \end{gathered}

Now we solve for "a" first by subtracting 8 on both sides:

\begin{gathered} 6a+8-8>10-8 \\ 6a>2 \end{gathered}

Now we divide both sides by 6

\frac{6a}{6}>\frac{2}{6}

Simplifying:

a>\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, for b = 2, the possible values of "a" are those that are greater than 1/3
