For this, you need to solve a proportion-

3.4 x

----- = -----

1.8 39.75

3.4*39.75=135.15

135.15/1.8= 75.0833.....

On december 1, jonas jewelry wholesale center started with an inventory of 1,000 watches. shipments of 168, 231, and 411 were se

denis-greek [22]

Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total watches in an inventory = 1000

Number of shipments sent out = 168, 231, 411

So, Remaining inventory of watches would be :

$1000-(168+231+411)\\\\=1000-810\\\\=190$

New receipts = 21, 145 and 11

So, Number of watches on hand becomes :

$190+(21+145+11)\\\\=367$

Hence, Third option is correct.

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!! 20 POINTS!!

Kobotan [32]

Answer: $S_{12}=399.90$

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the formula to find the sum of a finite geometric series is:

$S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}$

Where $n$ is the number of terms, $a_1$ is the first term and $r$ is the common ratio ( $r\neq 1$ ).

The steps to find the sum of the first 12 terms of the given geometric serie, are:

1. Find the common ratio "r". By definition:

$r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}$

Then:

$r=\frac{100}{200}\\\\r=\frac{1}{2}$

2. Finally, knowing that:

$a_1=200\\\\n=12$

You must substitute values into the formula.

Then you get:

$S_{12}=\frac{200(1-(\frac{1}{2})^{12})}{1-\frac{1}{2}}\\\\S_{12}=399.90$
