Remember that finding terms in a geometric sequence is done by multiplying the previous term by a common ratio 
. For example, we can say:
We have 
. To find 
, let's multiply this term by 
:
Now, let's use this to find all of our other terms:
Thus, our terms are 64, 80, 100, 125, and (625/4).
Answer:
Approximately $14.20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of the groceries be represented by c, then;
cost price + VAT = c + (5% of c)
To get the value of the cost, c, that would make him spend as close to $15. Since the tax is 5% of the cost price, then the cost price would be close to $15.
Let c = $14.20, then;
So that,
c + (5% of c) = 14.20 + (5% of 14.20)
= 14.20 + 0.71
= $14.91
Thus, the greatest total cost of groceries Darla can spend in order to spend as close to $15 as possible is approximately $14.20.
You can add 4/9.
A simple trick is to look at the numerator and denominator separately, if they're both perfect squares then you're good (4, 2^2, check. 9, 3^2, check.)
The three numbers have to multiply to 48 in a ratio of 3:2:1
which would be 6:4:2
so 6 inches
Answer:
2 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
change -1 3/5 to an improper fraction
-1 3/5 = -(5*1+3)/5 = -8/5
-1 3/5 ÷ -2/3 =
-8/5 ÷-2/3
copy dot flip
-8/5 * -3/2
24/10
divide top and bottom by 2
12/5
change back to a mixed number
5 goes into 12 2 times (5*2=10) with 2 left over
2 2/5
