Betsy is saying for a bird cage. She saves $1 the first week, $3 the second week, $9 the third week, and so on. All together how
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that Betsy's savings are 3 times the saving of her last week. We can see that this is an geometric sequence as 1,3,9,..

To find the sum of our geometric sequence we will use S_{n}=a\cdot \frac{1-r^{n}}{1-r}, where n is number of terms we are taking sum of, a is first term of sequence and r is common ratio of the sequence.

S_{5}=1\cdot \frac{1-3^{5}}{1-3}

S_{5}=\frac{1-243}{-2}

S_{n}=\frac{-242}{-2}=121

Therefore, Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

By finding the size of each exterior angle of a regular polygon with 24 sides, calculate the size of each interior angle of the
Dima020 [189]

We can find the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon using the formula : (n-2) x 180, where n is the number of sides.

We replaced in : (24-2) x 180 = 3960

So, all the interior angles in this polygon add up to 3960.
-> Each interior angle is equal to 3960 : 24 = 165.

Find the length of a right triangle if a=6 and b=8
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6^2 + 8^2 = c^2

36 + 64 = 100

Square root of 100 is 10

a=6 b=8 c=10

I'm so sorry if I got this wrong.

Mark and paula are storing masks. Paula has 70% of the total number of masks. If paula has 840 more masks thatn mark, how many m
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1050 masks per person.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Create an equation to find the total number of masks

2) Solve equation and divide total by 2 to get the number of masks that can be given to both Mark and Paula so that they have equal number.

1) Since Paula has 70% of the total masks, it can be represented as 0.7 * t where t is the variable representing the total number of masks. Mark on the other hand has the remaining number of masks out of 100% which is 30%. We can express that as 0.3. We multiply that by t because he has 30% of the masks. The final equation we have is 0.3t + 840 = 0.7t. 840 because Paula has 840 more masks than Mark.

2) Solve by subtracting 0.3t from both sides leaving you with 0.4t = 840. We divide both sides by 0.4 to get 2100. That is the total number of masks. If we divide that number by 2, we get 1050.
