Answer:
no, 2 would be sitting on 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are looking for the principal amount, then all we have to do is reverse the process of getting the amount of tax. In order to get the principal, you just have to divide 22 with 0.05. The answer is 440 so that is the principal amount you are looking for.
Here, Sequence : -2, -6, -18, -54
Common Ratio = a₂/a₁ = -6/-2 = 3
As the expression is in negative sign, it's sequence will be -3ˣ
Where x = number of terms in the sequence [ By this rule, you can calculate the unknown nth number]
In short, Option C is your answer!!!!
Let me know, if you have some doubt.
Each dive goes further down, so it represents -50 ft (not positive which would represnt going up).
y= -125-50x
We know that there are 3 dives so plug that in for x
y= -125-50(3)
y= -125-150
y= -275
Final answer: -275 ft
