Since it is a geometric sequence each term will be a specific multiple of the term preceding it, called the common ratio...
126/42=378/126=1134/378=3
The sequence is a(n)=a(3)^(n-1) and we know the second term is 42 so:
42=a(3)^(2-1)
42=3a
a=14
So the first term is 14.
To find the average you add all three numbers together and then divide by three since you added three.
$38,750.00 + $42,500.00 + $42,500.00 = $123,750.00
$123,750.00 ÷ 3 = $41,250
So your answer is $41,250
Answer:the answer is B 60.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so for starters you want to choose an equation and solve for a variable.
So, I am going to choose x from the first equation.
Add y to both sides and you get x=11+y
Next, substitute 11+y for x in the other equation so you get...
2(11+y) +10y=-6
Next distribute the 2 throug the 11 and the y
22+2y+10y=-6
12y=-28
y=-28/12
reduce this fraction to make this easier.
y=-7/3
Now plug in why to either of the equations to find x
x-(-7/3)=11
x+7/3=11
x=11-(7/3)
x=(33/3)-(7/3)
x=26/3
so x = 26/3 and y = -7/3
you can also check to see if this is correct by substituting each of these values into the equations.
Answer:
It decreases.
Step-by-step explanation:
10 / d
Lets say that it was 10 / 40, which is 10 divided by 40, 0.25.
Now, it has increased to twice the amount of that.
1 / 80, 10 divided by 80, which is 0.125
So, it decreases.
