Hello There!

Orange to Green is:
2: 5
5 + 2 = 7
21/7 = 3
2 x 3 = 6
5 x 3 = 15

In short, there are 6 orange picks.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

In an arithmetic sequence , the 6th term is 9 and the 8th term is 15

Inga [223]

Hopefully the math terms won't confuse anyone.

So in the series, a_6 = 9 and a_8 = 15. Since it's an arithmetic sequence, all the terms in the series can be represented as:
a_n = a_0 + n * k
where n is the nth number. K is a constant you add to reach the next term, and a_0 is the starting constant.
a_6 = a_0 + 6 * k
a_8 = a_0 + 8 * k
solving this system gives you that
k = 3 and a_0 = -9
for any term n for this arithmetic sequence,
a_n = -9 + 3 * k

A square has sides of length 8 inches. To the nearest tenth of an inch, what is the length of its diagonal?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

I might be wrong, but I think it is 8.
I think it’s 8 because all side lengths are equal in a square, meaning if one side length is 8 all the other side lengths are going to be 8 also.

Macky Pangan invested ₱2,500 at the end of every 3-month period for 5 years, at 8% interest compounded quarterly. How much is Ma

sveta [45]

Compound interest with addition formula:

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}+\frac{PMT(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-1}{\frac{r}{n}}$

where,

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

PMT = Regular contributions (additional money added to investment)

in this example

P = 2500

r = 8% = 0.08

n = 4

t = 5 years

PMT = 2500

$A=2500(1+\frac{0.08}{4})^{4\cdot5}+\frac{2500\cdot(1+\frac{0.08}{4})^{4\cdot5}-1}{\frac{0.08}{4}}$

solving for A:

$A=189408.29$

Therefore, his investment after 5 years will be

$189,408.29
