Answer:
7/4 +1/6 +X=15/2
1/6+X=15/2-7/4
1/6+X=30/4-7/4
X=23/4 - 1/6
X= 138-4/24
134/24
5.58333

Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that:
First term (a) = 5
common ratio (r) =
The nth term of a geometric sequence is given as:

C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.
Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395. We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85. We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00. Altogether this gives us
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%. This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.
Answer:
The <u>larger </u>size container and the Cold farms is the better deal for Sheldon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
1 gallon = 8 pints

Multiply the gallons to 20
8 × 20 = 160
Then, the large size is 18.
4.50 ×4 =18 (1 Gallon= 4 quartz)
Therefore, the <u>larger </u>size container and the Cold farms is the better deal for Sheldon.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture attached,
a). Triangle in the figure is ΔBCF
b). Since,
and
are the parallel lines and m is a transversal line,
m∠FBC = m∠BFG [Alternate interior angles]
Since,
and
are the parallel lines and n is a transversal line,
m∠BCF = m∠CFE [Alternate interior angles]
By triangle sum theorem in ΔBCF
m∠FBC + m∠BCF + m∠BFC = 180°
From the properties given above,
m∠BFG + m∠CFE + m∠BFC = 180°
m∠GFE = 180°
Therefore, angle GFE is the straight angle that will be useful in proving that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of the triangle is 180°.
