The total cost for one can is: $25.41.
__________________________________________________
Let us assume that we want to know the total cost of ONE CAN.
_____________________________________________
To calculate our answer:
_______________________________
$ 23.97 + [ (6/100) * 23.97)] = Our answer, in dollars.
__________________________________________
Note: "6%" = 6/100 = 0.06
_______________________
Rewrite as:
____________
$ 23.97 + [ (6/100) * 23.97)] = our answer, in dollars;
_____________________________________________
$ 23.97 + (0.06 * 23.97)
= $ 23.97 + 1.4382
= $ 25.4082 ; Round to decimal places, to get:
<span>→ $ 25.41

Since the sequence is geometric, there is some constant

such that the sequence is recursively given by

By this definition, you can recursively substitute into the right hand side the definition for

to find an explicit formula for the

th term.

You know the second term, which means you can find

:

So, the 7th term of the sequence is
its 3 1/4 you will thank me later :)
So 36% of x is 18
percent is parts out of 100
36%=36/100=0.36
'of' can be translated as muitiply
0.36 times x=18
divide both sdies by .36
x=50
the number is 50
Interest = Pin = principal * interest rate * number of years
Let interest rate be i, then
600*i*2+150*i*4=90
1200i+600i = 90
i=90/(1200+600)=90/1800=1/20=0.05 or 5%
