Answer:

shes less likely to pick blue from the second bag

Step-by-step explanation:

first you divide 10 by 25 which will give you 40 percent

then

you divide 75 by 250 which will give you 30 percent

which makes it less likely for Greg to pick blue from the second bag

Which system of equations has one solution?

Tju [1.3M]

The first graph. This is because the one solution is where the two lines will intersect.
In the second graph, the two lines are parallel, so there is no possible way for them to intersect. In the third graph, the two lines are on top of one another, so there’s more than one solution.
Therefore, the first graph is where there is one solution.

The first term in a geometric series is 64 and the common ratio is 0.75. Find the sum of the first 4 terms in the series.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

195.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider geometric series S(n) where initial term is a

So S(n)=a+ar^1+...ar^n

Factor out a

S(n)=a(1+r+r^2...+r^n)

Multiply by r

S(n)r=a(r+r^2+r^3...+r^n+r^n+1)

Subtract S(n) from S(n)r

Note that only 1 and rn^1 remain.

S(n)r-S(n)=a(r^n+1 -1)

Factor out S(n)

S(n)(r-1)=a(r^n+1 -1)

The formula now shows S(n)=a(r^n+1 -1)/(r-1)

Now use the formula for the problem

what is the common ratio for the geometric sequence below, written as a fraction? 768, 480, 300, 187.5, …

Crazy boy [7]

Let

$a1=768\\a2=480\\a3=300\\a4=187.5$

Step $1$

Find $\frac{a2}{a1}$

$\frac{a2}{a1} =\frac{480}{768}$

Divide by $96$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{480}{768} =\frac{\frac{480}{96}}{\frac{768}{96}} \\ \\ \frac{480}{768}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a2=a1*\frac{5}{8}$

Step $2$

Find $\frac{a3}{a2}$

$\frac{a3}{a2} =\frac{300}{480}$

Divide by $60$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{300}{480} =\frac{\frac{300}{60}}{\frac{480}{60}} \\ \\ \frac{300}{480}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a3=a2*\frac{5}{8}$

Step $3$

Find $\frac{a4}{a3}$

$a4=187.5 \\ a4=187\frac{1}{2} \\ \\ a4=\frac{375}{2}$

$\frac{a4}{a3} =\frac{\frac{375}{2}}{300} \\ \\ \frac{a4}{a3} =\frac{375}{600}$

Divide by $75$ numerator and denominator

$\frac{375}{600} =\frac{\frac{375}{75}}{\frac{600}{75}} \\ \\ \frac{375}{600}=\frac{5}{8}$

$a4=a3*\frac{5}{8}$

In this problem

The geometric sequence formula is equal to

$a(n+1)=a(n)*\frac{5}{8}\\$

For $n\geq 1$

therefore

the answer is

the common ratio for the geometric sequence above is $\frac{5}{8}$

Q: A cell phone company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data. The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte.

DiKsa [7]

The linear equation which can be used to determine a user's monthly

bill is c = 60 + 0.05 d ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

A cell phone company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data
The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte
d represents the number of additional megabytes used
c represents the total charges at the end of the month

We need to find which equation can be used to determine a user's monthly bill

The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where b is the constant amount and m is the rate of change

∵ The company charges $60.00 a month for up to 1 gigabyte of data

- That means it is a constant amount each month

∴ b = 60

∵ The cost of additional data is $0.05 per megabyte

- That means it depends on the number of additional megabyte,

so it is not constant, it is the rate of change

∴ m = 0.05

∵ d represents the number of additional megabytes

∴ x = d

∵ c represents the total charges at the end of the month

∴ y = c

Substitute y by c, m by 0.05, x by d and b by 60 in the form of the linear equation above

∴ c = 0.05 d + 60

- We can rearrange the terms of the right hand side

∴ c = 60 + 0.05 d

The linear equation which can be used to determine a user's monthly

bill is c = 60 + 0.05 d
