Answer:

a_1=1.04

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a geometric  sequence with:

Sn = 89,800, r = 3.4, and n = 10

Where

Sn is the sum of the sequence

r is the common ratio

a_1 is the first term in the sequence

n is the number of terms in the sequence

The formula to calculate the sum of a finite geometric sequence is:

S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}

Then:

89,800=\frac{a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})}{1-3.4}

Now we solve for a_1

89,800(1-3.4)=a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})

a_1=\frac{89,800(1-3.4)}{1-(3.4)^{10}}\\\\a_1=1.04

Please help me! I’m giving brainliest to whoever is right first
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

y = 10

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

4y - 3 = 37

4y = 37 + 3

4y = 40

y = 40 / 4

y = 10

3x - 9 = 42

3x = 42 + 9

3x = 51

x = 51 / 3

x = 17
