The formula for the nth term of a sequence with first term a1 and common ratio r is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
r=a(n+1)/an

to find the common ratio, divide a term by the previous term
8/2=4
2/(1/2)=4
(1/2)/(1/8)=4
(1/8)/(1/32)=4
common ratio is 4
first erm is 1/32

an=(1/32)(4)^(n-1)

The dishes have been sorted into cups and plates. The number of plates is four less than two times the number of cups. The dishe

Nady [450]

Answer:

The number of cups = 8 ....

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of cups

Let y be the number of plates

According to the given statement:

y=2x-4 This is equation 1

Now,

60% = 0.60

y=0.60(x+y) This is equation 2

Now substitute equation 1 in equation 2.

y=0.60(x+y)

2x-4=0.60(x+2x-4)

2x-4=0.6x+1.2x-2.4

Solve the like terms:

2x-4=1.8x-2.4

2x-1.8x=4-2.4

0.2x=1.6

x=1.6/0.2

x= 8 cups

Therefore the number of cups = 8 ....

One of the tables shows a proportional relationship. Graph the line representing the proportional relationship from this table i

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Table C

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

Find the value of the constant of proportionality in each table

Table A

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-3$ ------> $k=-3/-1=3$

This table has different values of k

therefore

the table A does not represent a proportional relationship

Table B

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-2$ ------> $k=-2/-1=2$

For $x=1, y=3$ ------> $k=3/1=3$

This table has different values of k

therefore

the table B does not represent a proportional relationship

Table C

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-2$ ------> $k=-2/-1=2$

For $x=1, y=2$ ------> $k=2/1=2$

For $x=2, y=4$ ------> $k=4/2=2$

This table has the same value of k

therefore

the table C represent a proportional relationship

Table D

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-2$ ------> $k=-2/-1=2$

For $x=1, y=2$ ------> $k=2/1=2$

For $x=2, y=6$ ------> $k=6/2=3$

This table has different values of k

therefore

the table D does not represent a proportional relationship
