Answer:
let cp be x
sp= 115x/100 ---(when 15%gain)
sp = 88x/100------(when 12% loss
according to question
115x/100 - 88x/100 = 81
or, (115x-88x)= 8100
or, 27x = 8100
or, x= 8100/27
x = 300
hence cp is RS 300
Answer:
a(8) = -0.0027
Step-by-step explanation:
The most general formula for a geometric sequence is a(n) = a(1)*r^(n-1), where a(1) is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Here, the formula becomes a(n) = 6*(-1/3)^(n-1).
Substitute 8 for n to find the eighth term:
a(8) = 6*(-1/3)^(8-1), or a(8) = 6(-1/3)^7, or a(8) = -0.0027
It is not A,B, or D.
so it has to be C. wish I knew this when taking test.
let me know if it was right. I hope this is somewhat helpful.
If you need to solve this equation you can multiply the both side of equation on (-1). Like that
<span>2 = (-x);
-1·2 = (-1)·(-x)
if you multiply negative and </span><span>positive </span>you'll have negative,
if you multiply negative and <span>negative you'll have </span><span><span>positive. So
</span>
</span>-2 = x. or
x = -2.
The answer is -2.
