Answer:
7 points
Step-by-step explanation:
started out w/ 5 points, then loses 8
5 - 8 = -3
gains 10 points
-3 + 10 = 7
1/5+ (-4) is the same as 1/5 - 4
1/5-20/5
-19/5
The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value?
P present value 25000
R interest rate 0.03
T time 9 years
A=25,000×(1+0.03)^(9)
A=32,619.33
A₆ =12
a₇ = ?? = x
a₈ 27
In this case x is the geometric mean & as per the formula
geometric mean of 2 numbers =√(a₆ * a₈) = √(12*27)
& x=18.
Proof:
Find the common ratio between a₇ & a₆ ==> = ( x) / 12
now find the common ration between a₈ & a₇ ===> =27 / (x)
x/12 = 27/x ===> x² = 12*27 ==> x² = 324 & x =√324 = 18
