Answer:

7,971,615

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence is one in which the successive terms show a regular pattern of change defined by a common ratio i.e the division of the successive term with the previous term gives a constant known as the common ratio.

Where r is the common ratio, a is the first term and n is the number of term, the nth term Tn of a geometric sequence may be defined as

Tn = ar^(n-1)

where a = 5, r = 15/5 = 3

then T14 = 5 * 3(14 - 1)

= 7,971,615

 The question is "What's Stella's opportunity cost of working on her serve for an hour?" The rest of the info looks like it's meant to confuse you. They charge $10 an hour. She values an hour of her time at $20. I believe that means she would pay $20. Hope this helps!

It’s a new semester! Students are grouped into three clubs, which each has 10, 4 and 5 students. In how many ways can teacher se
ozzi

Here we must see in how many different ways we can select 2 students from the 3 clubs, such that the students <em>do not belong to the same club. </em>We will see that there are 110 different ways in which 2 students from different clubs can be selected.

So there are 3 clubs:

  • Club A, with 10 students.
  • Club B, with 4 students.
  • Club C, with 5 students.

The possible combinations of 2 students from different clubs are

  • Club A with club B
  • Club A with club C
  • Club B with club C.

The number of combinations for each of these is given by the product between the number of students in the club, so we get:

  • Club A with club B: 10*4 = 40
  • Club A with club C: 10*5 = 50
  • Club B with club C. 4*5 = 20

For a total of 40 + 50 + 20 = 110 different combinations.

This means that there are 110 different ways in which 2 students from different clubs can be selected.

If it goes from a higher number to a lower number it is a decrease.

(15,295 - 9182) / 15295....x 100
6113 / 15295 = 0.399....x 100 = 39.9% decrease
