Answer:
Sequence 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>You need to find the difference between term - the nth term.</u>
<u>The difference / nth term has to to -1/2 (-0.5)</u>
Sequence 1:
-6 * -0.5 = 3 * -0.5 = -3/2 (-1.5) * -0.5 = 3/4 (0.75) * -0.5 = -3/8 (-0.375)
Sequence 2:
4 * -2 = -8 *-2 = 16 * -2 = - 32 * -2 = 64
Sequence 3:
-1/3 ÷ 2 = -1/6 ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 2 = 24 ÷ 2 = 48
Sequence 4:
400 ÷ -2 = -200 ÷ -2 = 100 ÷ -2 = -50 ÷ -2 = 25
The only sequence with a common ratio of -1/2 is Sequence 1.
Zack would receive $200. You have to make 60% as a decimal= 0.60 then multiply $500*0.60= $300 then you subtract $500-$300=$200
(Hope this works!!)
4x + 5y = -13
2(4x + 5y) = 2(-13)
8x + 10y = -26 (equation 1)
5x - 2y = -8
5(5x - 2y) = 5(-8)
25x - 10y = -40 (equation 2)
equation 1 + equation 2,
(8x + 10y) + (25x - 10y) = (-26) + (-40)
8x + 10y + 25x - 10y = -26 + -40
33x = -66
x = -2
substitute x = -2 into equation 1,
8x + 10y = -26
8(-2) + 10y = -26
-16 + 10y = -26
10y = -10
y = -1
The values of x and y are -2 and -1 respectively.
= 8
