Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Take a careful look at a(n) = 6(-8)^(n-1).
The first term is 6. This is the result if we let n = 1; 6(-8)^0 = 6(1) = 6. Thus, we can immediately eliminate possible answer choices A and D.
What's the next term? Knowing that the first term, a(1), is 6, the next term is found by multiplying this 6 by (-8)^1, obtaining -48.
The next (third) term is found by multiplying this -48 by (-8)^2, obtaining -48*(+64), or - 3072.
Note that the sign of (-8)^(n-1) alternates, being odd when n-1 is odd and even when n-1 is even.
Answer C is the correct one.
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
{ y = 3 x - 4
9x -3y = 14
Subsititute y = 3x-4 :
[ 9 x - 3 ( 3 x-14 )=14]
Refine:
9 x - 3 ( 3 x - 4 ) = 14
- 2 = 0
is false , therefore the system of equations has no solution
Answer A
hope this helps!
30% off 25: multiply 25 by .30 to find 30%: 7.5. Now subtract that from the sales price: 25-7.5=17.5
Do the same for store B: .40•30=12. 30-12=18.
So store A is better by $.50 :) hope this helps :)
