Answer: the number of shoppers on the first day is 125

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of shoppers is 20% more than the numbers of shoppers the day before. It means that the number of shoppers is increasing in geometric progression. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as

Sn = (ar^n - 1)/(r - 1)

Where

n represents the number of term in the sequence.

a represents the first term in the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

From the information given,

r = 1 + 20/100 = 1.2

n = 4(first 4 days)

S4 = 671

Therefore, the expression for the first 4 days is

671 = (a × 1.2^(4) - 1)/1.2 - 1

671 = (a × 1.2^(4) - 1)/0.2

671 = 1.0736a/0.2

671 = 5.368a

a = 671/5.368

a = 125

Choose correct graph with following function
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The answer to your question is The second graph

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for a trigonometric is

                        Acos(Bx + C) + D

A indicates the amplitude if the value is 1, the lowest point is -1 and the highest point is 1.  So we discard the first graph.

B indicates the period. A normal graph has a period of 2π, but this equation has a period of 3/2. This means that the period is smaller.

C indicates that the graph is moved to the left or right but in this problem C = 0, so it does not change.

D indicates if the graph is moved up or down, in this problem, D = 0 so it does not change.

You have quarters and dimes that total $2.80. your friend says it is possible that the number of quarters is 8 more than the num
ss7ja [257]
To answer this question, you need to know that a quarter is worth $0.25 and dimes worth $0.10. In this case, the total number of money that made from quarters and dimes is $2.80
With Q=quarter and D=dime, then the equation should be:
2.80= 0.25 Q + 0.10 D

The condition that needs to be fulfilled in this case is that the quarter should be 8 more than dimes. Then you need to find out the highest possible number of the quarter and lowest possible number of the dimes.  
If you divide 2.8 with 0.25 you will found it will be 11.2 but 11 quarter will result with 0.05 value which you cannot remove, so the highest possible of the quarter should be 10.
If the highest possible of the quarter is 10, then the lowest possible of dimes should be:
2.8= 0.25(10) + 0.10D
0.10D= 0.3
D=3

Since 10-3 is 7, then it is not possible for the quarter to be 8 more than the dimes.
