The correct answer is:

d. groceries

Explanation:

This is because excise taxes are commonly levied on enterprises or good that are deemed useless or even harmful, such as cigarettes. Thus, the tax acts as a restraint to people acquiring these goods or services. Clearly, groceries are important for endurance and are not worthless or dangerous.

Find the nth term of this number sequence<br> 7, 10, 13, 16, ...<br><br> help please !!

LenKa [72]

Answer:

$a_{n}$ = 3n + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is

10 - 7 = 13 - 10 = 16 - 13 = 3

this indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

here a₁ = 7 and d = 3 , then

$a_{n}$ = 7 + 3(n - 1) = 7 + 3n - 3 = 3n + 4

Here is a garden and a pond.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

<h2>Kayla needs 8 boxes of grass seed to cover the whole garden without including the pond.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

You can observe a representation of this problem in the image attached.

Notice that the grass seed is gonna be put only in the green zone, out of the pond. So, we need to find each area and subtract them.

$A_{garden}= 14 \times 9 =126 \ m^{2} \\A_{pond}=2.4 \times 3.8 = 9.12 \ m^{2}$

The difference is

$A_{seed}=126 - 9.12 = 116.88 \ m^{2}$

Now, according to the problem, one box of grass seed covers 15 meters of the garden, let's divide this number with the seed area.

$n=\frac{116.88}{15} \approx 7.792$

Therefore, Kayla needs 8 boxes of grass seed to cover the whole garden without including the pond.

You invested $4,200 into an account that pays an interest rate of 3.5% compounded continuously. What is the balance of your acco

nordsb [41]

Answer:

$A=\$5003.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the exponential growth formula

$A = Pe ^ {rt}$

Where A is the final amount in the account, P is the initial amount, r is the growth rate and t is the time in years

In this problem

We know that

$P=4,200\\\\r=\frac{3.5\%}{100\%}= 0.035\\\\ t=5\ years$

So

$A = 4,200e^{0.035t}$

Finally after 5 years the balance of the account is:

$A=\$5003.2$
