Answer:

4.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

solution:

principal (p) = $300

time(t) = 3 years

interest (I ) =$40

rate (r) = ?

we know that,

I = (PTR)/100*

OR, 40 = (300 *3 * R)/100

or, 40 = (900R)/100

or, 40 = 9R

or, 40/9 = R

or, R = 4.4%

Rate(r) =4.4%

Use the cross product property to solve each equation: 5/7 = x/9

enot [183]

Answer:

x = 45/7

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5}{7} =\frac{x}{9}$

Here, you can more easily see what the fractions look like.

In order to cross-multiply, you have to multiply 5 with 9, and 7 with x.

45 = 7x

Then, you isolate x by dividing 7 on both sides:

45/7 = x

given the recursive formula for a geometric sequence find the common ratio the 8th term and the explicit formula.did I set these

lesya [120]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)Since we know that recursive formula of the geometric sequence is

$a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

so comparing it with the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-4$

we get common ratio =-4

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=-2*(-4)^{7} =32768.$

Explicit Formula = $-2*(-4)^{n-1}$

2) Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-2$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =-2

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=-4*(-2)^{7} =512.$

Explicit Formula = $-4*(-2)^{n-1}$

3)Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*3$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =3

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=-1*(3)^{7} =-2187.$

Explicit Formula = $-1*(3)^{n-1}$

4)Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-4$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =-4

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=3*(-4)^{7} =-49152.$

Explicit Formula = $3*(-4)^{n-1}$

5)Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-4$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =-4

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=-4*(-4)^{7} =65536.$

Explicit Formula = $-4*(-4)^{n-1}$

6)Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-2$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =-2

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=3*(-2)^{7} =-384.$

Explicit Formula = $3*(-2)^{n-1}$

7)Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-5$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =-5

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=4*(-5)^{7} =-312500.$

Explicit Formula = $4*(-5)^{n-1}$

8)Comparing the given recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*-5$

with standard recursive formula $a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r$

we get common ratio =-5

8th term= $a_{1}*(r)^{n-1}=2*(-5)^{7} =-156250.$

Explicit Formula = $2*(-5)^{n-1}$
