3=y and 2=x
Pretty sure that’s right
In a geometric sequence each number after the first is found by multiplying the previous number by a fixed number called the common ratio.
In an arithmetic sequence, each term is equal to the previous term plus or minus a constant called the common difference.
In your problem we have a sequence of numbers that appears to be decreasing in value, but on the surface it doesn't appear to be by any constant number... but if you look closely, the denominator 34 is exactly twice the other denominator 17. This would lead me to look at a common denominator to see if anything takes shape...
9/17 = 18/34
15/34
6/17 = 12/34
9/34
Now we see that each number is the previous number minus 3/34, so we have a common difference of 3/34.
This would match the definition of an arithmetic sequence and NOT a geometric sequence.
$7.35. All you do is multiply the two together
Answer:
F = $11,421.90
Final value after 5 years F = $11,421.90
Complete question;
You purchased a vehicle for $32,000. It's value will depreciate at a rate of 18.62%. What will it's value be in 5 years, when you finally have it paid off
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Initial value P = $32,000
Depreciation rate r = 18.62% = 0.1862
Time t = 5
Final value = F
Using the compound depreciation formula;
F = P(1 - r)^t
Substituting the values;
F = $32,000(1 - 0.1862)^5
F = $11,421.90
Final value F = $11,421.90
Answer:
The number of robberies in 2014 is 108
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the number of robberies in 2014
from the question, the robberies went down by 40%
Let the number of robberies in 2014 be x
Thus;
40/100 * 180
= 72
This means that the value it went down was by 72
Thus;
x = 180-72
x = 108
