Answer:

f(n) = 120 * (1/2)^n

Step-by-step explanation:

First the first number is 120, so we get y = 120, then 60/120 = 1/2

So we no the r, or constant rate is 1/2.

After that, we can finish our equation by doing

f(n) = 120 * (1/2)^n

or

y = 120*(1/2)^x

Answer:

120(0.5)^x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at the sequence we can see that the sequence is decreasing by 1/2 of the other or dividing by 2.

120/2= 60 60/2= 30....

So, we know the multiplier is 1/2 or 0.5

So...

120(0.5)^x-1

Angelo grows vegetables and sells them at a farmers'
irina [24]

Answer:

$7.55

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by using a system of equations. The equations would be set up like this:

2c + p = 3.15\\3c + 2p = 5.35\\

Let's isolate a variable in the first equation:

p = -2c + 3.15

Now we can plug this in to the second equation:

3c + 2(-2c + 3.15) = 5.35\\3c - 4c + 6.3 = 5.35\\-c + 6.3 = 5.35 \\-c = -.95\\c = .95

Now that we have found c we can find p by plugging c in to an equation

2(.95) + p = 3.15\\1.9 + p = 3.15\\p = 1.25

We have found both variables now we can use the following equation to answer the question:

4c + 3p = ?\\4(.95) + 3(1.25) = ?\\3.8+3.75 = 7.55

Therefore, the price in dollars of 4 cucumbers and 3 peppers is $7.55.
