\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^t\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &40,000\\
r=rate\to 3\%\to \frac{3}{100}\to &0.03\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &16\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=40000(1+0.03)^{16}\implies A=40000(1.03)^{16}

Stan's cookie recipe makes 24 cookies and calls for exactly 384 sprinkles. He is wondering how many sprinkles (p)eft parenthesis
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

960 sprinkles

Step-by-step explanation:

x = sprinkles

For this problem we will create a ratio

\frac{24}{384} :\frac{60}{x}

24x=384*60

24x=23,040

x=23,040/24

x=960

Stan would need 960 sprinkles!

Hope this helps!

(pls mark as brainiest)

Thanks!

Write a formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence. Then find the indicated term. five halves comma five fourths
nadya68 [22]
Sequence: 5/2, 5/4, 5/8, 5/16
a8=?

a1=5/2
a2=5/4
a3=5/8
a4=5/16

a2/a1=(5/4)/(5/2)=(5/4)*(2/5)=(5*2)/(4*5)=2/4=1/2
a3/a2=(5/8)/(5/4)=(5/8)*(4/5)=(5*4)/(8*5)=4/8=1/2
a4/a3=(5/16)/(5/8)=(5/16)*(8/5)=(5*8)/(16*5)=8/16=1/2
Ratio: r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3→r=1/2

an=a1*r^(n-1)
a1=5/2, r=1/2
an=(5/2)*(1/2)^(n-1)
an=(5/2)*[1^(n-1)/2^(n-1)]
an=(5/2)*[1/2^(n-1)]
an=(5*1)/[2*2^(n-1)]
an=5/2^(1+n-1)
an=5/2^n

n=8→a8=5/2^8
a8=5/256

Answers:
The formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence is an=5/2^n
a8=5/256

5x-2 what’s the slope and y-int ?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Slope = 5.

y-int = (0, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x - 2

The slope intercept form is

y = mx + b  where m = the slope and b = the y-intercept.

So here,  the slope = 5 and the y-intercept is where y = -2.  That is the point (0, -2).

In a class of 40 students, everyone has either a pierced nose or a pierced ear. The professor asks everyone with a pierced nose
ladessa [460]

Answer:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are total 40 students in a class

No of students with Pierced Nose n(N)=7

No of students with Pierced ear n(E)=36

and we know using sets

n\left ( N\cup E\right )=n\left ( E\right )+n\left ( N\right )-n\left ( N\cap E\right )

where n\left ( N\cup E\right )=Students either nose or ear Pierced

n\left ( N\cap E\right )=no of students having both nose and ear pierced

40=7+36-n\left ( N\cap E\right )

n\left ( N\cap E\right )=43-40=3
