Answer:
a2=12 (the second term of the sequence is 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
a5=324
If the term to term rule is multiply by any number, we deal with geometrical sequence
The formula you should use is an= a1*r^(n-1) where n is the number of the term which we know. In our case we know
a5, so use 5 instead of n
Then you have a5=a1*r^4 where r is the number 3 (because each next term is greater than previous in 3 times)
a5=324
324= a1*3^4
324=a1*81
a1=4 (We find the first term of sequence, because having it you can easily search for every term )
Return to the formula an= a1*r^n-1
Now search for the second term using 2 instead of n in the formula
a2= a1*r^1
a2=a1*r, a1=4, r=3
a2=4*3=12
The equation would be 2x+8=-48 and x=-28
Answer:
The 9 ounce box is the better deal, and Kyle will save 2 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you should find how much 1 once would cost in the 9 ounce box.
Do 2.52 ÷ 9 = x
x = 0.28
This means that in the <u>9 ounce box, one ounce costs 28 cents</u>.
Now, find how much one once would cost in the 12 ounce box.
3.60 ÷ 12 = x
x = 0.30
This means that in the <u>12 ounce box, one ounce costs 30 cents</u>.
This means that the 9 ounce box is a better deal, because it costs less per ounce.
0.30 - 0.28 = 0.02. This means there is a 2 cent difference in their prices per ounce.
So, Kyle should choose the 9 ounce box, and he will save 2 cents per box.
1 and 3/4 is the answer!
Hope this helps! May I have brainliest? :D
