Answer: $0.58
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent pencil and y represent eraser
10x + 7y = 4.23 → 1(10x + 7y = 4.23) → 10x + 7y = 4.23
3x + y = 0.95 → -3(3x + y = 0.95) → <u>-21x - 7y</u> =<u> -6.65 </u>
-11x = -2.42
<u>÷-11 </u> <u>÷-11 </u>
x = 0.22
3x + y = 0.95
3(0.22) + y = 0.95
0.66 + y = 0.95
y = 0.29
2y = 2(0.29) = 0.58
The answer is 45

What is the 9th term of the geometric sequence 4, -20, 100, ...
<span>First term, a = 4 </span>
<span>common ratio, r = –20 / 4 = –5 </span>
<span>..... ..... ..... ..... = 100 / –20 = –5 </span>
<span>9th term = 4 ( –5 ) ^ ( 9 - 1 ) </span>
<span>..... ...... = 4 ( –5 ) ^ 8 </span>
<span>..... ...... = 4 ( 390,625 ) </span>
<span>..... ...... = 1,562,500 </span>
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the value of 1 is 4,
So, there are 2 difference,
1 is 4
2 is 6
3 is 8
4 is 10
5 is 12
So, the first five terms is 4, 6 ,8 ,10, 12.
