Answer:

  • an = 160·0.85^(n-1)
  • $51.29

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given formula, a1 refers to the first term of the sequence (160), and r refers to the common ratio (136/160 = 0.85). Putting these values into the formula gives ...

a) Explicit formula: an = 160·0.85^(n-1)

__

b) The 8th term is found by putting n=8 into the formula and doing the arithmetic:

  a8 = 160·0.85^(8-1) ≈ 51.29

After 8 months, the price is predicted to be $51.29.

Answer:

an = 160[0.85^(n-1)]

$51.29

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 160

ar = 136

r = 136/160 = 0.85

an = 160[0.85^(n-1)]

a8 = 160[0.85^(8-1)]

= 51.29233413

There were 567 people at a concert when a band started playing. After each song, only one-third of the people stayed to hear the
emmasim [6.3K]
To write the function correctly, it is important to assign variables correctly and understand the situation of the problem clearly. For this, we let y the number of people and x as the number of songs played.

At x = 0   y = 567
at x = 1   y = 567 - 567(1/3)
at x = 2   y = 567 - 567(1/3)(1/3)
at x = 3   y = 567 - 567(1/3)(1/3)(1/3)

Therefore, the number of people left after x songs would be represented by the equation:

y = 567 - 567(1/3)x
y = 567 ( 1- x/3 )

In this case you must add 87 and 88 which gives 175.
Then divide 175 by 2 which gives 87.5
87.5 is the median

PLEASE HELP!!!!! Geometry
barxatty [35]

Answer:

53°

Step-by-step explanation:

i will use ∩ to represent arc since there is no arc sign

if ∩EF = 34, then ∡EFC = 34

think of EFC as an angle in the larger circle

since EFC = 34, ABC = 34 because they are opposite angles and opposite angles are always congruent.

ABD = AB + BD = 19 + 34 = 53
