Answer:

Marcus will make $127 by the end of the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day he received one dollar, on the second day he received two dollars, on the third day he received four dollars, and on the fourth day he received eight dollars. This means that the amount of money he receives is increasing in a geometric progression.

The sum of n terms of a sequence is expressed as

Sn = a(r^n - 1)/(r - 1)

Where

a is the first term of the sequence

r is the common ratio,

n is the number of terms.

From the information given,

n = 7( a week is 7 days)

a = 1 (amount for the first day)

r = 2

S7 = 1(2^7 - 1)/(2-1)

S7 = 128 - 1 = 127

Luna entered a raffle for a new pair of running shoes. She purchased 20 tickets and was told that she had a 20% chance of winnin
xenn [34]

Answer:

<h3>100 tickets</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of winning = amount of tickets purchased/Total number of tickets

20% = 20/total number of tickets

20/100 = 20/total number of tickets

cross multiply

20 * total number of tickets = 20 * 100

20 *  total number of tickets = 100

total number of tickets sold = 100 tickets

The coordinates of A and B are (3k, 8) and (k, -3) respectively. Given that the gradient of the line segment AB is 3, find the v
Vladimir [108]

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient = slope or several other words.

it describes how strongly a line (or tangent to a bent curve) is going up or down or ... if it is changing at all.

it is represented by the ratio

(y coordinate change / x coordinate change)

when going from one point on the line to another.

in our case, when going from A to B we have

x changes by -2k (from 3k to k).

y changes by -11 (from 8 to -3).

so, the gradient or slope is

-11/-2k = 3

11/2k = 3

11 = 3×2k = 6k

k = 11/6

A = (33/6, 8) = (11/2, 8)

B = (11/6, -3)
