The sequence is to multiply by -3. Therefore, you want to multiply by -3 which gives you 108. Since it is a negative by a positive the answer would be negative. The next term would be -108.

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The selling price is $79.53 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

$Profit\ percentage = \frac{Profit\times 100}{Cost\ price}$

Let us assume that the cost price be x .

As given

Judy Garland Electronics operate on a net-profile rate of 20% on its printer cables.

If the markup is $8.95 and the overhead is $4.31 .

Selling price = Cost price + Markup price + Overhead price

Putting all the values in the above

= x + 8.95 + 4.31

= x + 13.26

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

= x + 13.26 - x

= 13.26

Putting all the values in the above

$20 = \frac{13.26\times 100}{x}$

$x = \frac{13.26\times 100}{20}$

$x = \frac{1326\times 100}{20\times 100}$

$x = \frac{1326}{20}$

x = $ 66.3

Thus

Selling price = x + 13.26

= 66.3 + 13.26

= $ 79.53

Therefore the selling price is $79.53 .

Convert 5.764764764 … to a rational expression in the form of a over b, where b ≠ 0

zubka84 [21]

I just learned a short time ago how to convert a repeating decimal to a fraction.

-- Take the repeating part of the decimal. In this one, it's '764' .

-- Make a fraction out of it by writing it over the same number of 9s.

   The fraction here is 764/999 .

-- Simplify it if possible and if you feel like it.

   764/999 can't be simplified. (I think.)

So the rational expressions for this decimal are

   (5 and 764/999)   or   5759/999   .

The price of one bag of popcorn is $3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x represent the cost of a bag of popcorn

y represent the cost of a drink.

According to given statement;

4x+12y=30 Eqn 1

x+6y=11.25 Eqn 2

Multplying Eqn 2 by 2

$2(x+6y=11.25)\\2x+12y=22.50\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 1

$(4x+12y)-(2x+12y)=30-22.50\\4x+12y-2x-12y=7.50\\2x=7.50$

Dividing both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{7.50}{2}\\x=3.75$

4x+12y=30 and x+6y=11.25 can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink.

The price of one bag of popcorn is $3.75

The pair of values below is from a direct variation. Find the missing number.

NISA [10]

Answer:

The answer is 2.

2 since 6/4=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your relation is a direct variation then the points on your line are of the form y=kx where k is the constant of variation (also called constant of proportionality)

If y=kx then y/x=k.

So all the points in this relation since it is a direct variation will be equal to y-coordinate/x-coordinate.

So we are going to solve this proportion:

$\frac{6}{4}=\farc{3}{x}$
