Answer: 644,800

Step-by-step explanation:

This can also be solved using the terms of Arithmetic Progressions.

Let the 13 years be number of terms of the sequences (n)

Therefore ;

T₁₃              = a + ( n - 1 )d , where a = 310,000 and d = 9% of 310,000

9% of 310,000 = 9/100 x 310,000

                        = 27,900

so the common difference (d)

                     d = 27,900

Now substitute for the values  in the formula above and calculate

T₁₃              = 310,000 + ( 13 - 1 ) x 27,900

                  = 310,000 + 12 x 27,900

                  = 310,000 + 334,800

                  = 644,800.

The population after 13 years = 644,800.

Rob is saving to buy a new MP3 player. For every $13 he earns babysitting, he saves $9. On Saturday, Rob earned $78 babysitting.
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

54$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for each 13$ Rob earns babysitting, he saves 9$. Thus, we can separate the money he earns into groups of 13, and for each group of 13, we can add 9$ to his savings.

Assume that Rob has 78$ lying on a table. He grabs 13 of them, leaving 65, and puts 9$ to the side for savings. He does this 5 more times (as 65 divided by 13 is 5, so Rob would make 5 groups of 13 out of his 65$ that is left), meaning that he now has 5+1  (the original group) = 6 groups of 9. 9*6=54, so he saves 54$. Please let me know if you have any further questions!

Determine the sum of the first 9 terms in the geometric series where r= -0.25 and a1= 256.
Damm [24]

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence} \\\\ S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad  \begin{cases} n=n^{th}\ term\\ a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ r=\textit{common ratio}\\ ----------\\ r=-0.25\\ a_1=256\\ n=9 \end{cases}

\bf S_9=256\left(\cfrac{1-(-0.25)^9}{1-(-0.25)}  \right)\implies S_9=256\left( \cfrac{1+0.25^9}{1+0.25} \right) \\\\\\ S_9=256\left(  \cfrac{52429}{65536}\right)\implies S_9=\cfrac{52429}{256}\implies S_9=204.80078125
