<em>A store charges $414 for a small refrigerator, the price consists of the refrigerator's original cost to the store plus a profit 15% what was the refrigerator's original cost to the store?</em>
Step one:
given data
we are told that the price of the small refrigerator contains both the original price and 15% profit
mathematically
$414= original price + 15% profit
Step two:
let us solve for 15% of 414
=(15/100)*414
=0.15*414
=$62.1
This shows that the profit is $62.1
let the original price be x
$414= x + 62.1
solve for x
x=414-62.1
x=351.9
<u>The refrigerator's original cost to the store $351.9</u>
Answer:
98.57
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5% over 100% X 102=3.43
102-3.43= 98.57
Answer:
an=1*2.5^(n-1)
=2.5^(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete question below:
What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio? Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence. On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).
Solution
Point (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).
a=1
ar=2.5
ar^2=6.25
From ar and ar^2
r=6.25/2.5
=2.5
r=2.5
an=ar^(n-1)
Therefore, the explicit formula is
an=1*2.5^(n-1)
=2.5^(n-1)
