What does find the constant rate of change mean?

natulia [17]

The change of the cost changes when the pounds of ham changes. When the pounds of ham is 0, it costs 0 dollars. When the pounds of ham is 3, it costs 12 dollars. The cost changes consistently with the pounds of ham. They change together. Every time the pounds of ham goes up by 3, the cost goes up by 12.

42 is 30% of what number??? Add work plz

romanna [79]

X - the number

$30\% x =42 \\
\frac{30}{100}x=42 \\
\frac{3}{10}x=42 \\
x=42 \times \frac{10}{3} \\
x=\frac{420}{3} \\
x=140$

42 is 30% of 140.

A geometric series has second term 375 and fifth term 81 . find the sum to infinity of series .

Eduardwww [97]

Answer: $\bold{S_{\infty}=\dfrac{3125}{2}=1562.5}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

a₁, 375, a₃, a₄, 81

First, let's find the ratio (r). There are three multiple from 375 to 81.

$375r^3=81\\\\r^3=\dfrac{81}{375}\\\\\\r^3=\dfrac{27}{125}\qquad \leftarrow simplied\\\\\\\sqrt[3]{r^3} =\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{27}{125}}\\ \\\\r=\dfrac{3}{5}$

Next, let's find a₁

$a_1\bigg(\dfrac{3}{5}\bigg)=375\\\\\\a_1=375\bigg(\dfrac{5}{3}\bigg)\\\\\\a_1=125(5)\\\\\\a_1=625$

Lastly, Use the Infinite Geometric Sum Formula to find the sum:

$S_{\infty}=\dfrac{a_1}{1-r}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{625}{1-\frac{3}{5}}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{625}{\frac{2}{5}}\\\\\\.\quad = \dfrac{625(5)}{2}\\\\\\.\quad = \large\boxed{\dfrac{3125}{2}}$
