A(n) = current term

a(n + 1) = next term

in a geometric sequence, the next term comes from a product of the current term and the common ratio.

the common ratio can be any value, let's say use r = ½.

if the current term is say hmmm 40, the next term is 40*½ , or 20, so indeed, the next term is smaller.

True.  If the common ratio r is between 0 and 1 (for example), then each successive term will be smaller than the preceding term.

Veronica earns $150 per week plus 3.5% on sales,while Francis earns 6% commission only
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

a) Veronica earns $276. Francis earns $216

b) $6000

Step-by-step explanation:

Veronica's income would be I= 0.035s +150 where I is income and s is sales while Francis's income would be 0.06s. So for $3600 in sales Veronica earns $276 while Francis earns $216. To find the answer to part b just set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x. so 0.035x + 150 = 0.06x Subtracting 0.035 x from both sides gives 150 = 0.025x. Dividing both sides by 0.025 gives x = $6000
