Ratios are like fractions in the way that you can simplify them if they have common factors.
we can simplify this ratio to 
1:3
that means that the bigger part got 3 times the amount of the smaller part. The problem says that Evan got the smaller amount, so if we multiply the smaller amount by 3 we should and will get the bigger amount. It says that $420 is the smaller part.
420*3=1260
so the bigger amount of money is $1260
So, because Ricky got the bigger part of Mr. George's money, he must have received
$1260<span />

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

  $8

Step-by-step explanation:

After the shoe purchase, her balance was $50 -45 = $5.

After depositing her babysitting earnings, her balance was $5+25 = $30.

After buying pizza, her balance was $30 -42 = -$12.

<em>Assuming no overdraft charge</em>, her balance after depositing her earnings was ...

  -$12 +20 = $8

Sally's balance on Sunday was $8.

When graphing the inequality y ≤ 2x − 4, the boundary line needs to be graphed first. Which graph correctly shows the boundary l
Volgvan

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The boundary line follows the graph of y = 2x - 4 because it represents the line of maximum or minimum values the graph could take. y = 2x - 4 has a y-intercept of -4 because it is in slope-intercept form. It also has a slope of 2, so to find another point on the line, you can go up two and right one. Also, this inequality has a solid line because it is "less than or equal to" and a solid line represents the values that equal.

The sum of 4 and 5 is subtracted from one-third of the difference of 40 and 4.​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Sum of 4 and 5 → 4 + 5 = 9

Difference of 40 and 4 → 40 – 4 = 36

One-third 1/3 of 36 → 12

→ 12 – 9

A geometric sequence is defined by the general term tn = 75(5n), where n ∈N and n ≥ 1. What is the recursive formula of the sequ
andreyandreev [35.5K]
The correct answer is C) t₁ = 375, t_n=5t_{n-1}.

From the general form,
t_n=75(5)^n, we must work backward to find t₁.

The general form is derived from the explicit form, which is
t_n=t_1(r)^{n-1}.  We can see that r = 5; 5 has the exponent, so that is what is multiplied by every time. This gives us

t_n=t_1(5)^{n-1}

Using the products of exponents, we can "split up" the exponent:
t_n=t_1(5)^n(5)^{-1}

We know that 5⁻¹ = 1/5, so this gives us
t_n=t_1(\frac{1}{5})(5)^n&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{t_1}{5}(5)^n

Comparing this to our general form, we see that
\frac{t_1}{5}=75

Multiplying by 5 on both sides, we get that
t₁ = 75*5 = 375

The recursive formula for a geometric sequence is given by
t_n=t_{n-1}(r), while we must state what t₁ is; this gives us

t_1=375; t_n=t_{n-1}(5)
