Answer: 375</h3>
=========================================
Work Shown:
a = 300 = first term
r = 60/300 = 0.2 = common ratio
We multiply each term by 0.2, aka 1/5, to get the next term.
Since -1 < r < 1 is true, we can use the infinite geometric sum formula below
S = a/(1-r)
S = 300/(1-0.2)
S = 300/0.8
S = 375
----------
As a sort of "check", we can add up partial sums like so
- 300+60 = 360
- 300+60+12 = 360+12 = 372
- 300+60+12+2.4 = 372+2.4 = 374.4
- 300+60+12+2.4+0.48 = 374.4+0.48 = 374.88
and so on. The idea is that each time we add on a new term, we should be getting closer and closer to 375. I put "check" in quotation marks because it's probably not the rigorous of checks possible. But it may give a good idea of what's going on.
----------
Side note: If the common ratio r was either r < -1 or r > 1, then the terms we add on would get larger and larger. This would mean we don't approach a single finite value with the infinite sum.
Using cosine law.
b= sqrt(38^2 + 18^2 - 2(38)(18) Cos 36)
using calculator solve.
b = sqrt (1444 + 324 - 1106.75)
b = 25.75

Answer:
A If this is maths!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
If we rely solely on mathematics then the answer must be A. The other options seem to be from economy so it has nothing with mathematics. Please make sure that this is math task then answer.
Answer:
256.25
Step-by-step explanation:
if you have a 20% discount then you are paying 80% if the original cost.
so 80% of the original price is 205
.80x = 205
x = 205/.80
