The answer is 280 degrees.
{{{ THE BOLDED CHARACTERS SHOULD BE SMALL. }}}
SEQUENCE: 6, 18, 54, 162
18/6 = 3
54/18 = 3
162/54 = 3
then, r (common ratio) = 3
_________________________________________
RECURSIVE RULE: r = 3
an = a(n - 1) × r [formula]
ANSWER: an = a(n - 1) × 3
_________________________________________
ITERIATIVE RULE: r = 3, a1 = 6
an = a1 × r^(n - 1) [formula] [ ^(n-1) is an exponent]
ANSWER: an = 6 × 3^(n - 1)
Answer:
10 people lesser.
Step-by-step explanation:
Initially, it 15 people get off but 9 people get picked up, hence losing 6 people. If 4 more people get off, it has then lost 10 people total.
The original number of passengers on the bus decreased by 10 after the second stop
Assume that the total passengers on the bus before 2:30 was x
Now, at 2:30:
15 passengers got off and 9 got on.
This means that:
number of passengers = x - 15 + 9
number of passengers = x -6
10 minutes later:
4 passengers got off the bus
This means that:
number of passengers = (x-6) - 4
number of passengers = x - 10
The original number of passengers on the bus decreased by 10 after the second stop.
He saves $200 (the amount of change over the original amount $500
200/500 = 2/5 and 2/5 = 40% (divide 2 by 5 and get .4 which = 40%)
40% discount is the answer to your question
The cost of the roof is $240
