The first term of this series (a+1) is 1 and the common ratio (r) is -3.
Thus, the explicit formula is a_n = 1*(-3)^(n-1).
Must check this! suppose we try to calculate the 3rd term. Then n = 3.
a_3 = 1*(-3)^(3-1) = (-3)^2 = 9. This is correct.
16 pieces is the answer because, there is 12 in cues in one foot. So you take 12 and 8, multiply to get 96. Finally you need to divide by 6 and get 16
Answer:
The last one 5x-3y=15 This is the same as y= (5/3)x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-3y=15
Move 5x to the right (becoming negative)
-3y = -5x +15
Divide everything by - 3
y= (5/3)x -5
y intersect= -5 ( line crosses y coordinate at -5)
Slope = 5/3 From -5 you start counting (5 up,3 right,5 up,3 right.... OR 5 down,3 left,5 down,3 left........)
First, find the expected number of scooters rented per month:
As the data is symmetrical, E(X) (the expected value) is the middle value. So, on average, 2.5 scooters should be taken per month.
His total costs were 5 * 3000 = $15,000
So, to break even, he needs to make $15,000.
He will be selling for 5 years, or 60 months.
As a result, he needs to make 15000/60 = $250/month
As he is selling 2.5 scooters on average, he needs to rent each for:
$250/2.5 = <u>$100/month</u>
