Answer:
-39,063
Step-by-step explanation:
In this geometric, sequence, you are multiplying by -5. So, we can continue the sequence by mulitplying 375(your last value) by -5 and so on, until we have 7 total terms.
Now we add the terms together:
-3+15+-75+375+-1875+9375+-46875
=-3+15-75+375-1875+9375-46875
=-39063
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If 3⁄4 gallons of water come out of a hose in 15 minutes, to calculate the rate of water that comes out in an hour (60 minutes), we will use the expression;
3/4 gallons = 15 minutes
x gallons = 60minutes
cross multiply
15x = 3/4 * 60
15x = 180/4
15x = 45
x = 45/15
x = 3/1
x = 3:1
Hence the water rate in gallons per hour is 3 gallons per hour
The first figure has 3 angles, the second one has 4 angles, the third one has 5 angles so the next one will have 6 angles.
The violet figures inside stick with each side of the outer figures in the middle, so the last figure will look more less like in the attachment.

Answer: the cost of each bush is $15
the cost of each flower is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of each bush.
Let y represent the cost of each flower.
Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as
12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1
Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as
7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes
84x + 210y = 1680
84x + 120y = 1500
Subtracting, it becomes
90y = 180
y = 180/90
y = 2
Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes
12x + 30 × 2 = 240
12x + 60 = 240
12x = 240 - 60 = 180
x = 180/12
x = 15
