50,000 / 2500 = 20....he bought them for 20 bucks a piece. So if he wants to sell them at 15% profit, he would sell them for 20 + 0.15(20) = $ 23 bucks.
A 15% profit of 50,000 dollars is 0.15(50,000) = 7500. Plus the 50 grand spent totals 57500. So they want to make a $ 7500 profit. Selling 2500 lamps at $ 23 per lamp (2500 x 23 = 57500) makes them their profit.
I should just shut up now...answer is $ 23 per lamp
Answer: The number of tomatoes went up relative to the increase of fertilizer used. the slope is positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
You gave the explicit form.
Step-by-step explanation:
You gave the explicit form.
The recursive form is giving you a term in terms of previous terms of the sequence.
So the recursive form of a geometric sequence is 
and they also give a term of the sequence; like first term is such and such number. All this says is to get a term in the sequence you just multiply previous term by the common ratio.
r is the common ratio and can found by choosing a term and dividing by the term that is right before it.
So here r=-3 since all of these say that it does:
-54/18
18/-6
-6/2
If these quotients didn't match, then it wouldn't be geometric.
Anyways the recursive form for this geometric sequence is
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor the coefficients:
-12=(-1)(3)(2^2)
-9=(-1)(3^2)
3=3
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 3
Next we find the GCF for the variable x.
x^4
x^3
x^2
The GCF is x^2.
Next GCF for variable y.
y
y^2
y^3
the GCF is y
Therefore the GCF is 3x^2y
To factor this out, we need to divide each term by the GCF,
(3x^2y)(−12x4y/(3x^2y) − 9x3y2/(3x^2y) + 3x2y3/(3x^2y) )
=(3x^2y)(-4x^2-3xy+y^2)
if we wish, we can factor further:
(3x^2y)(y-4x)(x+y)
