To find the common ratio in a geometric sequence, u divide the second term by  the first term. 20/80 = 1/4 <== common ratio

Terms are found in a geometric sequence by multiplying each number by the common ratio to get to the next number.

start with 80
80 * 1/4 = 80/4 = 20
20 * 1/4 = 20/4 = 5
5 * 1/4 = 5/4
5/4 * 1/4 = 5/16 <===
5/16 * 1/4 = 5/64 <===
5/64 * 1/4 = 5/256 <===

Answer:

1. you start with $ 3 and save $1 each month

2. your total savings is 3 times the number of month multiplied by itself

3. you save $3 the first month and then each month the amount triples

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

as y axis represents savings while x axis represents months

the statement "you start with $ 3 and save $1 each month"

is best described by the graph of straight line having slope of 1 and intercept of 3.

2. your total savings is 3 times the number of month multiplied by itself

          = 3(x)(x)

          = 3x^2

3.  as y axis represents savings while x axis represents months

the statement  "you save $3 the first month and then each month the amount triples" is best described by the exponential graph starting to rise from point (1,3) which means $3 save at 1 month.

If the ratio of red hair bands to green hair bands is 5 to 9 with a total of 70 hair bands, how many of them are greeen?
dsp73

ANSWER

45 green bands

EXPLANATION

The ratio of red hair bands to green hair bands is

5 : 9

The total ratio is:

9 + 5 = 14

If there are a total of 70 hair bands,

Then the number of green bands

=  \frac{9}{14}  \times 70

Simplify

= 9 \times 5

Multiply

= 45

Therefore, there are 45 green bands.

Whats the first operation needed to solve x/3-3=11
velikii [3]

Hello!

To solve algebraic equation, we will need to use the acronym SADMEP.

SADMEP is similar to PEMDAS, but it is strictly used for solving algebraic equations. Expanded, it is subtract, addition, division, multiplication, exponents, and then parentheses.

Looking at SADMEP, we see that subtract/addition comes first, then division/multiplication, and then exponents/parentheses.

In our equation, our goal is to isolate the variable, "x". Since we have two constants, -3 and 11, and -3 is on the side with the variable, we can add -3 to both sides of the equation first.

Therefore, the first operation needed to solve the equation is addition.
