First, we inspect what type of sequence is the order of the coordinates:
a2 = 1
a3 = 2
a4 = 4
Getting the difference,
a3 - a2 = 1
a4 - a3 = 2
The differences are not equal; hence, the sequence is not arithmetic.
Getting the ratio:
a3/a2 = 2
a4/a3 = 2
The common ratio is 2. Using the general form for a geometric series:
an = a1 r^(n-1)
If n = 2
1 = a1 (2)^(2-1)
a1 = 1/2
So,
an = (1/2) (2)^(n-1)
The answer is the first option.
Answer:
$( 51x^2 + x + 29).
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount she had left = original amount - amount spent on the gloves
= 62x^2 + x - 4 - (11x^2 - 33) (note we place the amount spent on gloves in parentheses because we have to subtract the whole amount)
Now we distribute the negative over the parentheses:
= 62x^2 + x - 4 - 11x^2 + 33 ( note - 33 becomes -33*-1 = +33)
Now simplifying like terms:
= 51x^2 + x + 29 (answer).
Answer:
$640
Step-by-step explanation:
192 = 0.3(x)
x = 192/0.3
x = 640
Answer:
-21.6
Step-by-step explanation:
-5.4
x 4 4x 4=16 so you carry the one to 5x4= 20 + 1 that was carried
-------- keep it negative
-21.6
The other number is -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; First we develop formulae for the given information. A number is added with 3 and the resulting sum is multiplied by 4. This number is then divided by 2 and the quotient is 0. Assume the unknown number is x, then the given information is as follows
The quotient of 
is 0. So = 0.
Step 2; Now we solve the above equation. The denominator is taken to the RHS and the RHS remains zero.
= 0, 4(x+3)= 0, 4x+ 12 = 0, 4x = -12, x = 
= -3.
So the other number is -3.
