Answer:

Number of sweets =54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of friends  = x

Number of sweets  = y

Glenda gives 6 to each of her friend,

6x = y  ----------------(I)

If she gives each of them 4, 18 is left

4x + 18 = y ---------------(II)

From (I)& (II)

6x = 4x + 18

Subtract 4x from both sides

6x - 4x = 4x + 18 - 4x

2x = 18

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 18/2

x = 9

y = 6x

  = 6 * 9

y = 54

Number of sweets =54

In a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following in a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.

nth term of a sequence = ar^n-1

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

r = a3/a2 = a4/a3

r = 16/2 = 128/16

r = 8

a2 = ar

2 = 8a

a = 2/8

a = 1/4

The nth term by substituting the parameters will be;

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Help pleaseeeeee thanks i hope u have a good day
VikaD [51]

Answer:

12825$

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 3 ft

we can convert each of the lengths from ft to yards

240 ft = 80 yards

285 ft = 95 yards

450 ft = 150 yards

150+150+95+80 = 475 yards

1 yard of fencing costs 27$ so we are going to multiply that by the total yards

475*27=12825$
