Answer:
$186.86
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>4 eggs cost:</u>
1 dollar per dozen (12 eggs), so by unitary method (ratios), we can find cost of 4 eggs. Shown below:

So, 4 eggs cost $0.33 approx
<u>12 lb. flour cost:</u>
2.50 dollar per pound, so 12 pounds would simply cost:
2.5 * 12 = $30
<u>14 lb of sugar cost:</u>
4.50 dollar per pound means 14 pounds would cost:
4.5 * 14 = $63
<u>2 ready-made edible flowers cost:</u>
5 cents for each flower means 2 flowers would cost:
5 cent = 0.05 dollars
0.05 * 2 = $0.10
We add all up to find cost of 1 cake. Shown below:
Cost of 1 cake = $0.33 + $30 + $63 + $0.10 = $93.43
Cost of 2 cakes = $93.43 * 2 = $186.86
The number of terms, 'n' is 8
<h3 /><h3>How to determine the number of terms</h3>
Let's determine the common ratio;
common ratio, r = 3/1 = 3
The formula for sum of geometric series with 'r' greater than 1 is given as; Sn = a( r^n - 1) / (r - 1)
n is unknown
Sn = 3280
Substitute the value
3280 = 1 ( 3^n - 1) / 3- 1
3280 = 3^n -1 /2
Cross multiply
3280 × 2 = 3^n - 1
6560 + 1 = 3^n
6561 = 3^n
This could be represented as;
3^8 = 3^n
like coefficient cancels out
n = 8
Thus, the number of terms, 'n' is 8
