Answer:

Part A: S_{n} = 12 + 7(n - 1)

Part B: $131

Part C: $1314

Step-by-step explanation:

Ethan is saving money in his piggy bank for his upcoming trip to Disney World. On the first day, he put in $12 and plans to add seven more dollars each day.

Part A:

On the first day, he puts $12 in the piggy bank.

On the second day, he deposited $7 in it. So, after second day he has (12 + 7) = $19.

On the third day, he deposited $7 more in it. So, after third day he has (19 + 7) = $26.

In this way, the savings in the piggy bank are growing in an arithmetic sequence with first term $12 and a common difference $7.

Therefore, the explicit formula that can be used to find the amount of money saved on any given day is given by  

S_{n} = 12 + 7(n - 1)

Part B:

Putting n = 18, we get the money that he will have on the 18th day, is given by S_{18} = 12 + (18 - 1) 7 = 131 dollars.

Part C:  

The Disney trip is in 187 days from the day he started saving. Then he will have after 187 days S_{187} = 12 + (187 - 1)7 = 1314 dollars. (Answer)

The new total is 60%, but the sales tax is 5% of the bill. how much is the salestax?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Sales tax is 8.33 % of new total

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Your bill =1000

New total 60%=1000*60/100=600

5% sale tax on whole bill price =1000*5/100=50

To deduct 5% sale tax in 60% of new total the % are=50/600=0.0833*100=8.33%

So,

Sale tax is 8.33% of new total 60%.

How do i graph the parabolas y = 1/32x^2
Pachacha [2.7K]
y=\frac{1}{32}x^2 \\ \\x=-16 \Rightarrow  y=\frac{1}{32} *(-16)^2=\frac{1}{\not32^1}*\not256^8=8\\ \\x=-8 \Rightarrow  y=\frac{1}{32} *(-8)^2=\frac{1}{\not32^1}*\not64^2=2\\ \\x=0 \Rightarrow  y=\frac{1}{32} *(0)^2=\frac{1}{\not32^1}*0=0 \\ \\x=8 \Rightarrow  y=\frac{1}{32} *(8)^2=\frac{1}{\not32^1}*\not64^2=2 \\ \\x= 16 \Rightarrow  y=\frac{1}{32} *( 16)^2=\frac{1}{\not32^1}*\not256^8=8
