Answer:

A: 105.6 B: 26.40

Step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 132 by 5, you get Meteorite B, 26.40, then minus that from 132, and you get Meteorite A, 105.6.

To check, do 26.40x5 and you should get 132.

What is the common ratio of the geometic sequence whose second and forth terms are 6 and 54, respectively?

Luda [366]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term formula of a geometric sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a $r^{n-1}$

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Using the second and fourth term, then

ar = 6 → (1)

ar³ = 54 → (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

$\frac{ar^3}{ar}$ = $\frac{54}{6}$ = 9

r² = 9 ⇒ r = $\sqrt{9}$ = 3 → C

Michelle brought an apple cut in 4 for $0.10 per piece. How much should she pay for 3 dozen pieces

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{4}{10}=0.4$

3 dozen = 36

$\frac{36}{0.4} =\frac{y}{0.1}$

0.4 × y = 36 × 0.1

0.4y = 3.6

0.4y ÷ 0.4 = 3.6 ÷ 0.4

y = 9
