Call the amount of sugar x tons
+ <span>The first company charges 5500 to rent trucks plus an additional fee of 150.50 for each ton of sugar and we have spend: 5500+ 150.50x
+ </span><span>The second company charges 4696 to run trucks plus an additional fee of 200.75 for each tun of sugar </span>and we have spend<span>: 4696+ 200.75x

We solve x for </span>5500+ 150.50x> <span>4696+ 200.75x
or </span> 150.50x- <span>200.75x > </span>4696-5500
and  - 50.25x >  - 304
or x < 304:50.25= 6.049
So we have the answer
+ If we have at least 7 tons of sugar we choose the first company and if not we choose the second.

Find the 12th term in the following geometric sequence. 0.75, 1.5, 3, 6, . . .
DochEvi [55]
We know that this is a geometric sequence.  Keep in mind that in a geometric sequence, the next term is found by shamelessly multiplying it by "some number", namely the "common ratio".

therefore, if you divide any "next term" by the "previous term", the quotient will just be that "some number", thus, if 1.5 ÷ 7.5 will give it to us, and is, yeap, you guessed it, is 2.

you can check say 3 ÷ 1.5 or 6 ÷ 3, you'll see it.

so, we know the common ratio is 2, and the first term is 0.75, so

 \bf n^{th}\textit{ term of a geometric sequence}\\\\&#10;a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;n=n^{th}\ term\\&#10;a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\&#10;r=\textit{common ratio}\\&#10;----------\\&#10;r=2\\&#10;a_1=0.75\\&#10;n=12&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;a_{12}=0.75\cdot 2^{12-1}\implies a_{12}=0.75\cdot 2^{11}\implies a_{12}=1536
