Answer:
B. $4.75
Step-by-step explanation:
3(4) + 7 = 19
19/4=4.75
its the first one 6k - 5
if u were to distribute u need to remember that 6 is negative so it changes -k to a positive 6k and then you would time 4 by -6 which would be -24 but u would just write it like 19 + 6k - 24. then u would add 19 to both sides by 19 which would be like adding 19 to -24 which would equal to -5 so it would equal to 6k - 5.
hope I explained the steps well enough for you.
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
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be "x"
We translate the word equation to algebraic equation.
First,
subtract 6 from me, so we have:
x - 6
Now,
Multiply by 2, so we have:
2(x-6)
Now,
Subtract 40, then divide by 4:

Now, you get "8", so equate this to 8, we get:

We now solve using algebra:

The number is 42
Answer:
8 nickels and 9 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
If all were dimes, the value would be $1.70. It is $0.40 less than that. Changing a dime for a nickel reduces the value by $0.05, so there must have been $0.40/$0.05 = 8 such changes.
There are 8 nickels and 9 dimes.
_____
<em>Check</em>
8 · 0.05 + 9 · 0.10 = 0.40 + 0.90 = 1.30 . . . the answer checks OK
