I don't understand the question, could you please re-word it and if I know it I will give u the answer
Here, Sequence : -2, -6, -18, -54
Common Ratio = a₂/a₁ = -6/-2 = 3
As the expression is in negative sign, it's sequence will be -3ˣ
Where x = number of terms in the sequence [ By this rule, you can calculate the unknown nth number]
In short, Option C is your answer!!!!
Let me know, if you have some doubt.
Answer:
(24, 224 ) i.e. 24 basketball and 224 footballs
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Basketball :</em>
uses 4 ounces of foam
20 minutes of labor
profit = $2.50
<em>Football :</em>
uses 3 ounces of foam
30 minutes of labor
profit = $2
Manufacturer has :
768 ounces of foam , 120 labor hours per week,
<u>using the simplex method to determine the optimal production schedule so as to maximize profits </u>
lets assume
x = number of basketball
y = number of footballs
maximize = 2.5 x + 2y from a linear programming problem
attached below is the detailed solution
First we have to find out the common number of them.
For that purpose, the first number should be divided by next number.
100/20 = 5
20/4 = 5
4/0.8 = 5
we have found that 5 is the common number.
0.8/5 = 0.16
therefore the answer is c
