H(x) = 0.15x - 0.19
p(x) = 0.29x - 0.16
(p · h)(-8) = (0.29(-8) - 0.16)(0.15(-8) - 0.19)
(p · h)(-8) = (-2.32 - 0.16)(-1.2 - 0.19)
(p · h)(-8) = (-2.48)(-1.39)
(p · h)(-8) = 3.4472
It is approximately equal to 3.
$104 because 30% of $80 is $24 and $80+$24 is $124 so...... that's what I got
The third choice is appropriate.
an = 5 - 3(n - 1); all integers n ≥ 1
_____
This equation follows the form for the general term of an arithmetic sequence.
an = a1 + d(n - 1)
where a1 is the first term (corresponding to n=1), and d is the common difference. From the problem statement, a1 = 5 and d = 2 - 5 = -3.
