The general form of the geometric sequence is a_{n} = a_{1} (r) ^{n-1}, where a sub n is the number term you're looking for (we're looking for the tenth term). a sub 1 is the first term in the sequence (ours is -6), r is the common ratio, and n-1 is the numbered term you're looking for minus 1.  Our formula then looks like this: a_{10} =-6(2) ^{10-1}.  Simplify it to  a_{10} =-6(2)^9.  Take 2 to the 9th power then multiply it by -6 to get -3072.  C is your answer.

vredina [299]

The amount of money that Jacinta pays to service the whole loan as interest is <u>sh. 5,899</u>.

<h3>What is interest?</h3>

Interest is the finance charge that a borrowers incurs to service a loan.

Interest is based on the outstanding balance at the end of the payment period.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Principal loan = sh. 100,000

Interest on outstanding balance = 1%

Monthly payment of principal and interest = sh. 10,000

Period of repayment = Monthly

<h3>Amortization Schedule:</h3>

                      Beginning     Interest   Payment   Ending Balance

1st month    sh. 100,000    sh. 1,000    sh. 10,000    sh. 91,000

2nd month    sh. 91,000       sh. 910    sh. 10,000     sh. 81,910

3rd month      sh. 81,910        sh.819    sh. 10,000    sh. 72,729

4th month    sh. 72,729       sh. 727    sh. 10,000    sh. 63,456

5th month   sh. 63,456       sh. 636    sh. 10,000    sh. 54,092

6th month   sh. 54,092       sh. 541     sh. 10,000    sh. 44,633

7th month   sh. 44,633       sh. 446    sh. 10,000    sh. 35,079

8th month  sh. 35,079        sh. 351     sh. 10,000    sh. 25,430

9th month  sh. 25,430       sh. 254     sh. 10,000    sh. 15,684

10th month sh. 15,684        sh. 157     sh. 10,000      sh. 5,841

11th month    sh. 5,841         sh. 58      sh. 5,899       sh. 0

Total interest paid =       sh. 5,899

Thus, based on the payment schedule above, the amount of money that Jacinta pays to service the whole loan as interest is <u>sh. 5,899</u>.

There are 50 cupcakes and 160 cookies to be sold at the school bake sale. What is the greatest number of packages of baked items
Sav [38]

The greatest number of packages of baked items that can be sold is 10

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that there are 50 cupcakes and 160 cookies to be sold at the school bake sale

To find: greatest number of packages of baked items that can be sold

Each package has the same number of cupcakes and same number of cookies with none left over

So, we have to find the greatest common factor of 50 and 160

The greatest number that is a factor of two (or more) other numbers.

When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.

<em><u>Greatest common factor of 50 and 160:</u></em>

The factors of 50 are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50

The factors of 160 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 80, 160

Then the greatest common factor is 10

So the greatest number of packages sold is 10

<em><u>Each package will contain:</u></em>

Given that there 50 cupcakes and 160 cookies

<em><u>Number of cupcakes in 1 package:</u></em>

\rightarrow \frac{50}{10} = 5

<u><em>Number of cookies in 1 package:</em></u>

\rightarrow \frac{160}{10} = 16

So each package has the same number of cupcakes and same number of cookies with none left over
