Answer:
c) The equation to find the price of each shrub is $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50
The cost of 1 shrub = p = $ 9.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of shrubs purchased = 4
The price paid for potting soil = $17.50
The total bill of purchase = $53.50
Let us assume the cost of 1 shrub = $p
The total amount spent of 4 shrubs = 4 x ( The price of each shrub) = 4 p
TOTAL BILL = The amount paid for 4 shrubs + AMOUNT paid for SOIL
⇒ $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50
Now. solving for p, we get:
53.50 - 17.50 = 4 p
or, 3 6 = 4 p
or, p = 36/4 = 9
or, p = 9
Hence, the cost of each shrub = $9
Answer:
The constant factor between consecutive terms of a geometric sequence is called the common ratio.
Example:
To find the common ratio , find the ratio between a term and the term preceding it. r=42=2. 2 is the common ratio.
