Unpainted Border on all sides: ====> 4 in"

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 72

Unit cost of a ticket = Income from ticket sales / number of tickets sold:

$1250
--------------- = $6.58 per ticket
190 tickets

Again:

$1175
--------------- = $6.71
175 tickets

While ticket prices do change (usually increase) from year to year, it's unusual to see such a situation here.

Don't have any guidelines by which to determine the "fixed cost of a ticket".

If we use the cost of a ticket of 2 years ago ($6.58/ticket), then the income from the sale of 225 tickets this year would be ($6.58/ticket)(225 tickets), or $1480.50.

Which shows the expression factored correctly? 16x^2-25
REY [17]
Lets take a look at the options first.
option 1 and option 4 are not possible as (8x) (8x) would give us 64x^2, which is not what we want.

we’re left with option 2 & 3. when expanded, option 2 will look like :
16x^2 - 40x - 10x + 25
= 16x^2 - 50x + 25

however, we do not want the 50x. so the answer is option 3, (4x-5) (4x+5)

if you don’t want to find the answer using expanding, there is also another method of expanding.

(a+b)^2 = a^2 - b^2

in this case, 16x^2 will be a^2 and 25 will be b^2. not sure whether you’ve learn this but yea.

Use the formula to evaluate the series -3 + 6 - 12 +24 - ...-az.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Your sum = (-2)^{z}  -  1  

S = ( (-2)^n  - 1),  If you let n = z,  then   S = (-2)^z  - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I can use a formula to find the sum of the first  n  terms.

we have   -3, 6, -12, 24, ... etc.

common ratio = r = -2

first term = -3

a_1 = -3

Then:   a_n =  a_1 * r ^(n -1)

a_n = (-3) * (-2)^(n - 1)    is the general formula for the nth term

Sum of first n terms = S =   a_1 *  (r^n   -  1) / (r - 1)

so...

S = (-3) * ((-2)^n  - 1 )/ (-2 - 1)

which simplifies to

S = (-3) *((-2)^n - 1) / (-3)

S = ( (-2)^n  - 1)

If you let n = z,  then   S = (-2)^z  - 1
