You do 250 x 1.25, then you get 312.5, then you subtract 250 by 312.5, and get -62.5, so, 250 - 62.5 = 187.05, I hope this helps!

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The common difference (d) in an arithmetic sequence is

d = a_{2} - a_{1} = 24 - 2 = 22

To obtain the next term in the sequence add 22 to the previous term

a_{4} = 46 + 22 = 68

a_{5} = 68 + 22 = 90

a_{6} = 90 + 22 = 112

--------------------------------------------------

(b)

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term and d the common difference

here a = 2 and d = 22, hence

a_{n} = 2 + 22(n - 1) = 2 + 22n - 22 = 22n - 20 ← n th term formula

---------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)

Using the n th term formula

a_{35} = (22 × 35) - 20 = 770 - 20 = 750

Amir deposits $325 in a bank account that earns 3% each year. How much will the account have in 5 years? Assume they make no add
Neko [114]

Answer:

C - 376.76

Step-by-step explanation:

each year, multiply the previous year's amount by 1.03 - the 1 because it will be increasing and the .03 because it will be increasing by 3% (.03 = 3% in decimal form)

year 0: 325

year 1 (+3%): 325 x 1.03 = 334.75

year 2 (+3%): 334.75 x 1.03 = 344.79

year 3 (+3%): 344.79 x 1.03 = 355.14

year 4 (+3%): 355.14 x 1.03 = 365.79

year 5 (+3%): 365.79 x 1.03 = <u>376.76</u>

the ratio of black bags to blue bags is 5 to 3. If there are a total of 185 black bags, then how many blue bags are there?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

There are 111 blue bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of black bags

y ---> the number of blue bags

we know that

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{3}

isolate the variable y

y=\frac{3}{5}x -----> equation A

x=185 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

y=\frac{3}{5}(185)

y=111

therefore

There are 111 blue bags
