the n th term (explicit ) formula for a geometric sequence is
=
The given explicit formula therefore has
= 5 and r = -
The recursive formula, allows us to find the next term in the sequence from the previous term
Here the next term in the sequence is obtained by multiplying the previous term by -
=
(-
) with
= 5
Answer:
cost of ribeye steak dinners = $10.36
cost of grilled salmon= $11.581
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of one steak dinners be x
Let the cost of one grilled salmon be y
One a particular day the waitress sells 12 ribeye steak dinners and 39 grilled salmon for a total is $575.53 which can be written in equation as
12(x)+39(y)= $575.53-------------------------------------(1)
On another day she sells 25 ribeye steak dinners and 13 grilled salmon dinners totals to $582.43.This can be represented as
25(x)+ 13(y)= $582.43-------------------------------------(2)
solving the equation (1) and (2)
eq(1) x 1
eq(2) x 3-------------------------(3)
Subtracting these equation we get,
x= 10.36
Now substituting this in equation (1)
y=11.581
