To make the equation easier to look at change it to this:
y = 15 - 3x
To find the x intercept say y = 0.
0 = 15 - 3x
Subtract 15 from each side.
-15 = -3x
Divide each side by -3.
5 = x <–––– x-intercept
The y-intercept of the equation is 15.
Hope this helps!

so, as you can see above, the common ratio r = 1/2, now, what term is +4 anyway?


so is the 8th term, then, let's find the Sum of the first 8 terms.

![\bf S_8=512\left[ \cfrac{1-\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^8}{1-\frac{1}{2}} \right]\implies S_8=512\left(\cfrac{1-\frac{1}{256}}{\frac{1}{2}} \right)\implies S_8=512\left(\cfrac{\frac{255}{256}}{\frac{1}{2}} \right)\\\\\\S_8=512\cdot \cfrac{255}{128}\implies S_8=1020](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cbf%20S_8%3D512%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1-%5Cleft%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5Cright%29%5E8%7D%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5Cimplies%20S_8%3D512%5Cleft%28%5Ccfrac%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B256%7D%7D%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D%20%20%5Cright%29%5Cimplies%20S_8%3D512%5Cleft%28%5Ccfrac%7B%5Cfrac%7B255%7D%7B256%7D%7D%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%7D%20%20%5Cright%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CS_8%3D512%5Ccdot%20%5Ccfrac%7B255%7D%7B128%7D%5Cimplies%20S_8%3D1020%20)
Answer:
72 spheres are formed
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by calculating the volume of the metallic cylinder
Mathematically, we have this as;
V = pi * r^2 * h
V = pi * 21 * 14^2
V = 4116 π cm^3
The volume of each small sphere is;
V = 4/3 * pi * r^3
= 4/3 * π * 7/2^3 = 57.167 π cm^3
To get the number of small spheres, we simply divide the volumes
That will be 4116 pi / 57.167 pi = 72
Since he sold it for $75 more,
% Mark Up = Mark Up/ Cost Price x 100%
% Mark Up = 75 / 125 x 100% = 0.6 x 100% = 60%
Percent Mark Up = 60%
Hope this helps :)
