Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The original selling price of the pair of socks is $8. The pair of socks is on sale for 15%. The new selling price of the pair of socks would be the original price - 15% off the original price. It becomes

8 - (15/100 × 8) = 8 - 0.15×8 = 8 - 1.2 = $6.8

if the sales tax rate is 8%, it means that the total cost of the socks would be the new selling price + 8% of the new selling price. It becomes

Total cost of the pair of socks

= 6.8 + (8/100×6.8) = 6.8 + 0.08×6.8 = 6.8 + 0.544 = $7.344

Answer:

34.04 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for a trapezoid:

a + b ÷ 2 × height

Substitute the values:

11.7 + 3.1 = 14.8

14.8 ÷ 2 = 7.4

7.4 × 4.6 = 34.04

The answer is 34.04 cm²

An arithmetic sequence is defined by the general term tn = -5 + (n - 1)78, where n ∈N and n ≥ 1. What is the recursive formula o
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In general for arithmetic sequences, recursive formulas are of the form

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d,

and the explicit formula (like tₙ in your problem), are of the form

aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d,

where d is the common difference. So converting between the two of these isn't so bad. In this case, your problem wants you to have an idea of what t₁ is (well, every answer says it's -5, so there you are) and what tₙ₊₁ is. Using the formulas above and your given tₙ = -5 + (n - 1)78, we can see that the common difference is 78, so no matter what we get ourselves into, the constant being added on at the end should be 78. That automatically throws out answer choice D.

But to narrow it down between the rest of them, you want to use the general form for the recursive formula and substitute (n + 1) for every instance of n. This will let you find tₙ₊₁ to match the requirements of your answer choices. So

tₙ₊₁ = t₍ₙ₊₁₎₋₁ + d ... Simplify the subscript

tₙ₊₁ = tₙ + d

Therefore, your formula for tₙ₊₁ = tₙ + 78, which is answer choice C.

Answer: 110, 35, 70, G, J, F, E, B, A, H, C, D, I

Step-by-step explanation:

8. For number 8, you will be using the exterior angle theorem. The exterior angle theorem states that the exterior angle equals the two angles inside the given triangle. Since we have 50 and 60, you will add 50 + 60 to get 110.

9. In this problem, you shall use the vertical angle theorem. The vertical angle theorem is simply that any angles vertical from one another are congruent. So a will be also 35 degrees.

10. This is an image depicting two lines cut by a transversal, creating multiple congruent angles. With this, you will be using the alternate interior angle theorem. Alternate interior angles are angles on different sides of the transversal but inside both of the lines that were cut into, as shown above. So,  b will also equal 70 degrees.

Part B:

1. G

2. J

3. F

4. E

5. B

6. A

7. H

8. C

9. D

10. I
