Answer:

30% discount

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent discount write a proportion.

\frac{1344}{1920}=\frac{x}{100}

Cross multiply numerator with denominator of each fraction to solve for x.

1344(100) = 1920(x)

134400 = 1920x

70 = x

This means you pay 70% of the price. The discount was 30%.

7x-10x+18+2x=-5.0000
inysia [295]

Simplifying

7x + -10x + 18 + 2x = -5

Reorder the terms:

18 + 7x + -10x + 2x = -5

Combine like terms: 7x + -10x = -3x

18 + -3x + 2x = -5

Combine like terms: -3x + 2x = -1x

18 + -1x = -5

Solving

18 + -1x = -5

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-18' to each side of the equation.

18 + -18 + -1x = -5 + -18

Combine like terms: 18 + -18 = 0

0 + -1x = -5 + -18

-1x = -5 + -18

Combine like terms: -5 + -18 = -23

-1x = -23

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 23

Simplifying

x = 23

Therefore,
a₁ = 2
a₂ = 2*(-3/2) = -3
a₃ = 2*(-3/2)² = 9/2 = 4.5
a₄ = 2(-3/2)³ = -27/4 = -6.75
a₅ = 2(-3/2)⁴ = 81/8 = 10.125

Answer:
In fractions, the first five terms are
     2, -3, 9/2, -27/4, 81/8
