Use two points to enter an equation for the function. Give your answer in the form a(b)^n. In the event that a = 1, give your an

levacccp [35]

Answer:

$m(n) = 24 (0.75)^n$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The two points are:

a) On the first swing she swings forward by 18 degrees: (1, 18)

b) On the second swing she only comes 13.5 degrees forward: (2,13.5)

2) The general equation using the form given is:

$m(n)=A(B)^n$

3) Substitute the two points:

$18=A(B)\\ \\ 13.5=A(B)^2$

4) Divide the second equation by the first one:

⇒ 13.5 / 18 = B

⇒ B = 0.75

5) Substitue B = 0.75 into the first equation:

18 = A (0.75) ⇒ A = 18 / 0.75 = 24

Hence, the equation is:

$m(n) = 24 (0.75)^n$

The beginning inventory at cost is $80,000.00 and at retail is $100,000.00. Purchases at cost are $160,000.00 and the retail val

DaniilM [7]

Cost of goods available for is equal

80000+160000=240000

Retail value is equal

100000+200000=300000

This means that the cost of goods sold is 80% (240000÷300000) and gross profit is 20%

Sales= 250000 and it's cost is equal 200000 (250000×0.8)

Ending inventory

=240000-200000=40000...answer

Hope it helps!
