(2t-3)²=4t²+9-(2t.(-3))=4t²+9-6t
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of terms that are two terms apart (s4 and s6) is the square of the common ratio:
s6/s4 = r^2
r = √(8/18)
r = 2/3 . . . . . matches choices A and C
__
Using the formula for the general term, we now know enough to find the first term:
sn = s1·r^(n-1)
s4 = s1·(2/3)^(4-1)
Using s4 = 18 and multiplying by (2/3)^-3, we get ...
18·(2/3)^-3 = s1 = 18·27/8
s1 = 243/4 . . . . . matches choice A
Answer:
Fossil B
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it was once covered by water, it would be the fish, and not the human skull, since humans can't live in water.
Amount paid for the first book is $17.
Amount paid for the second book is 0.75 x 8 = $6
Total amount paid = $17 + $6 = $23
Total full cost of the two books = $17 + $8 = $25
Amount of discount = $25 - $23 = $2
% reduction =

Therefore, the <span>percent of the total cost of the two books reduced during the sale</span> is 8%
