Answer:

first term a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the first 6 terms S6 = 15624

common ratio r= 5

n= 6

first term a=?

Formula: S6= a(r^n-1)/r-1

15624 = a( 5^6-1)/5-1

15624 = a(15625-1)/4

15624= a( 15624)÷4

15624= 15624a÷4

Cross multiply

15624×4 = 15624a

62496 = 15624a

divide both sides by 15624

62496÷15624 = 15624a÷15624

4 = a

a= 4

a store sells a 1 1/4 pound of turkey for 9 dollars what is the unit price of the turkey in the package
Ilya [14]

Answer:

7.20 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/4 can be expressed as 5/4 ((1*4+1) /4)

If price of 5/4 pound of turkey = $9

Price of 1 pound of turkey = $9 / (5/4)

( Same way you'd divide the price of 2 pounds by 2 to get the price of 1 pound)

$9 / (5/4) = $7.2
