Answer:
$511.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Selling price of bike at Danny´s shop is $550
Bike is sold 7% less at competitor´s shop.
Lets find the discounted amount at Danny´s competitor shop.
∴ 
Now, finding the cost of bike at Danny´s competitor.
Cost of bike at Danny´competitor= 
Cost of bike at Danny´s competitor= 
∴ Cost of bike at Danny´s competitor is $511.5.
Answer:
$18.01
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert from pesos to US dollars
6429/13.05 = $492.64
Convert from meters to yards
1.904* 25= 27.35
Divide to find the cost of one yard of fabric
492.64/27.35 = $18.01
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
In general for arithmetic sequences, recursive formulas are of the form
aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d,
and the explicit formula (like tₙ in your problem), are of the form
aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d,
where d is the common difference. So converting between the two of these isn't so bad. In this case, your problem wants you to have an idea of what t₁ is (well, every answer says it's -5, so there you are) and what tₙ₊₁ is. Using the formulas above and your given tₙ = -5 + (n - 1)78, we can see that the common difference is 78, so no matter what we get ourselves into, the constant being added on at the end should be 78. That automatically throws out answer choice D.
But to narrow it down between the rest of them, you want to use the general form for the recursive formula and substitute (n + 1) for every instance of n. This will let you find tₙ₊₁ to match the requirements of your answer choices. So
tₙ₊₁ = t₍ₙ₊₁₎₋₁ + d ... Simplify the subscript
tₙ₊₁ = tₙ + d
Therefore, your formula for tₙ₊₁ = tₙ + 78, which is answer choice C.
Answer:
12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the two triangles are similar:
Hope this helps!
So we need to find the sum of the first 5 terms.
You have told me that the first term is 10 meters, and that r = 0.5 per term.
With this knowledge, we can use the formula s_n=a₁((1-r^n)/(1-r)).
Plugging in the terms that we know...
s₅=10((1-0.5⁵)/(1-0.5))
s₅=10(0.96875/0.5)
s₅=10(1.9375)
s₅=19.375
With s₅, we can determine that the ball has traveled a total of 19.375 meters after 5 bounces.
