This is incorrect. X can be negative, making the expression on the left less than 0. If x were -10, then:
3 x -10 + 1 > 0
-30 + 1 > 0
-29 > 0
Is NOT true.
Answer:
Option (B)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given sequence is 45, 135, 405, 1215, 3645..........
Since it's a geometric sequence,
Common ratio of each successive term to the previous term
r = 
First term of the sequence 'a' = 45
Explicit formula of a geometric sequence will be,


Recursive formula of this sequence will be,
, 
Therefore, Option (B) will be the answer.

Answer: 4 dollars and 17 cents</h3><h3>This is the same as saying $4.17</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
15+35.50 = 50.50 dollars is the total before tax is applied.
Take 8.25% of this to get
0.0825*50.50 = 4.16625
and this rounds to 4.17, which is the amount of sales tax charged.
$4.17 = 4 dollars + 17 cents
---------
Extra info:
The grand total will be 50.50+4.17 = 54.67
Another way to get the grand total is to multiply 1.0825 by the previous subtotal (50.50) getting 50.50*1.0825 = 54.66625 and that rounds to 54.67
The multiplier 1.0825 effectively means "increase by 8.25%"
A) The amount financed is the purchase amount less the down payment.
$2,574.54 -574.54 = $2000.00
B) The finance charge is the total of payments less the amount financed.
18*$121.00 -2000.00 = $178.00
C) The APR is calculated by a financial calculator to be 10.96%.
To solve, we use the volume of a square pyramid formula which is expressed as the product of the area of the base (a²) and the height divided by three(h/3).
Volume = a² (h/3)
1024 in³ = (a²) (12 in/3)
a² = 1024 in³ · 3 /12
a = √256 in²
a = 16 in
Thus, the length of the base is 16 in.
