Answer:
Amount invested at 8% is $9000 and amount invested at 18% is $21000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let amount invested at 8% be x.
Let amount invested at 18% be y.
We get the 1st equation as:
........(1)
We get the second equation as:
=> 
or getting rid of the decimal by multiplying by 100 on both sides.
........(2)
Multiplying (1) by 8 and subtracting from (2) we get
So, y = 21000
And 
So, x = 9000
Therefore, amount invested at 8% is $9000 and amount invested at 18% is $21000.
There's not much you can or should do here other than to "solve for d."
Subtract 22 from both sides. Then 22 - 22 - 28d = -12 - 22 = -34
Then -28d = -34, and d = -28 / (-34) = + 14/17 (answer)
Answer:
To determine the common ratio of a geometric sequence. You just need to divide any two consecutive terms on it. You can see below that all of them have the same quotient.
1.2 / 1.5 = 0.8
0.96 / 1.2 = 0.8
0.768 / 0.96 = 0.8
.
Decimal form = 0.8
Fraction form = 4/5
.
Check:
1.5 x 0.8 = 1.2
1.5 x 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 = 1.2
Therefore, the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768 is 0.8 or 4/5.
