T_n = 3 * T_(n-1)
Long way (always works!)
T_5 = 3*T_4,
T_4 = 3*T_3
T_3 = 3*T_2
T_2 = 3*T_1
T_5 = 3*3*3*3*T_1 = 81*T_1 = 81*8 = 648!
Short way (sometimes it works!)
T_n = 3^(n-1) * T_1 (this case is a geometric series of ratio-=3)
T_5 = 3^4*8 = 648
Answer:
the answer would be -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Elapsed time from 105pm to 440am is 15 hours and 35 minutes.
32.75 + 39.88 = 72.63
72.63 x 114% = 72.63 x 1.14 = $82.7982 or $82.80 to the nearest cent.
114% is all of the cost of the meal plus 14 % extra for the tip. See how muliplying by 1.14 includes the $72.63 (this saves the step of adding it on at the end if you were only to find 14% of $72.63)
Answer:
The interest rate = 6 %
Explanation:
We have I = prt, where I represents simple interest, p represents principal, r represents interest rate, and t represents time in years.
Here principal, p = 200 $
Number of years , t = 3
Interest received, I = 36$
We need to find rate of interest.
Substituting
36 = 200 x r x 3
r =
= 0.06 = 6%
The interest rate = 6 %
