Answer:

Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

First 4 test scores = 87%, 92%, 76%,89%

Average targeted = 80%

We need to find the minimum score she needs to make on fifth test to achieve average of at least 80%.

Solution:

Let the minimum score she needs to make in fifth test be 'x'.

Total number of test = 5

Now we know that;

Average is equal to sum of all the scores in the test divided by number of test.

framing in equation form we get;

\frac{87+92+76+89+x}{5}=80

Multiplying both side by 5 we get;

\frac{344+x}{5}\times 5=80\times 5\\\\344+x=400

Subtracting both side by 344 we get;

344+x-344=400-344\\\\x=56\%

Hence Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.

Write an exponential function to describe the given sequence of numbers, assuming that the first number in the sequence correspo
Fantom [35]

Answer:

y = 5(6) {}^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

A exponential function is represented by

y = ab {}^{x}

where a is the vertical stretch and b is the base and x is the nth

power of x

Since the first number corresponds with zero, that means our y intercept is the first number.

This means when x=0 , y=5 so let find the value of 5.

5 = ab {}^{0}

b to the 0th power equal 1 so

5 = a \times 1

a = 5

Our equation is for now

y = 5b {}^{x}

Now let plug in 1,30

30 = 5b {}^{1}

Divide 5 by both sides

6 = b {}^{1}

Anything to the 1st power is itself so b equal 6.

So our equation is

y = 5(6) {}^{x}

Write the first five terms of the geometric sequence in which a1=8 and the common ratio is -1/2.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

First five terms are:

8 , (-4) , 2 , (-1) , (1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

a_{1}=8 \\\\r = \frac{-1}{2}\\\\a_{2}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{1}= \frac{-1}{2}*8= -4\\\\a_{3}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{2}=\frac{-1}{2}*-4=2\\\\a_{4}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{3}=\frac{-1}{2}*2=-1\\\\a_{5}=\frac{-1}{2}*a_{4}=\frac{-1}{2}*-1=\frac{1}{2}
