We are given the series of <span>a1 = -5 a2 = 20 a3 = -80. In this case, we can see that this is a geometric sequence with a geometric ratio equal to 20/-5 = -80/ 20 or equal to 4. Hence, r is equal to 4, a1 is equal to -5.

The geometric sequence formula is an = a1*r^(n-1) = -5 * (-4)^ (n-1) where n is an integer. Answer is B.</span>

kirill [66]

Answer:

2% profit

Step-by-step explanation:

x = price

50kg = 50x

30kg => 35x

20kg => 16x

35x + 16x = 51x

51x - 50x = x

50x .............. 100%

x ...................... p%

p = 1×100/50 = 100/50 = 2%

Answer:

d) x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{x} +5 = \sqrt{x + 45}$

$(\sqrt{x} +5)^{2} = (\sqrt{x + 45})^{2}$

$x + 10\sqrt{x} +25 = x + 45$

$10\sqrt{x} = 20$

divide 10 in both sides

$(\sqrt{x}){2} = (2){2}$

x=4
