Woo-Jin and Kiran were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence 64\,,\,16\,,\,4\,,\,1,...64,16,4,1,...64, comma, 16, c
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

f(n)=64(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

64, 16, 4, 1

r_1=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}=\dfrac{16}{64}=\dfrac{1}{4}

r_2=\dfrac{a_3}{a_2}=\dfrac{4}{16}=\dfrac{1}{4}

r_3=\dfrac{a_4}{a_3}=\dfrac{1}{4}

It is a geometric series because it has a common ratio r_1=r_2=r_3=\dfrac{1}{4}.

First term is 64.

The explicit formula of a geometric series is

f(n)=ar^{n-1}

where, a is first term and r is common ratio.

Substitute a=64 and r=1/4 in the above function.

f(n)=64(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}

Therefore, the required explicit formula is f(n)=64(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1}.

You are offered two different sales jobs. The first company offers a straight commission of 5% of the sales. The second company
sweet [91]

Answer:$5408

Step-by-step explanation:

The first company offers a straight commission of 5% of the sales. This means the salary or income is 5% of sales made.

The second company offers a salary of $260 per week plus 4% of the sales. This means salary or income

= $260 +4% of 260

= 260 + (4/100)×260

= 260 +(0.04×260)

=260+10.4 = $270.4

Let x = the amount of sales you would have to sell in a week in order for the straight commission offer to be at least as good

5% of x should be greater than or equal to $270.4

0.05x = 270.4

x = 270.4/0.05 =$5408

The sales should be greater than or equal to $5408
