Answer:

(a)$2248.8

(b) 14, 28, 16 and 7 candies

(c) $79

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) the model can be represented by the nth term of an arithmetic progression

L = a + (n-1)d

L= the amount in his account after 6 month; $12484

a= the amount in his account six month before; $1240

n = 6, being the sixth month of his deposit

d = the amount deposited monthly

12484 = 1240 + 5d:

12484-1240 = 5d

5d= 11244

d = 2248.8

(b) let the 1st box contain = x

2nd = 2x; 3rd = x + 2, 4th = 1/4(2x)

Hence; x + 2x + x +2 + 1/4(2x) = 65

4x + x/2 = 65-2

9x/2 = 63 ; 9x = 126. ; x = 14

(c) Each player gets a racket (r) and a can (c) of balls

The 5 players get in all 5 racket + 5 cans since Simon is a member

Therefore, 5r + 5c = 415

But each can cost $4,

5r + 5* 4 = 415; 6r = 415-20

5r = 395 ; r = 395/5

r = $ 79

The racket cost $79 each.

Find the total cost for a $30 bat;15% discount
noname [10]
An item that costs $30, when discounted 15 percent, will cost $25.5. The easiest way of calculating discount is, in this case, to multiply the normal price $30 by 15 then divide it by one hundred. So, the discount is equal to $4.5. To calculate the sales price, simply deduct the discount of $4.5 from the original price $30 then get $25.5 as the sales price.
