54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term.
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression
Ummmm................... I think you need to stick to the guidelines

Step-by-step explanation:
- Rewrite the problem
4x2-2(2)+5
2. Solve the problem. Do the multiplication first and then the subtraction and addition
8-2(2)+5
8-4+5
4+5
9
The final answer is 9
Answer:
$130.06
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest is calculated as shown;
I = A - P
A is the amount
P is the principal
Given
Principal = $316
Rate R = 9% = 0.09
Time t = 4yrs
Substiutte and get Amount A
A =P(1+r)^n
A = 316 (1+0.09)^4
A = 316(1.09)^4
A = 316(1.4116)
A = 446.06
Interest = 446.06 - 316
Interest = 130.06
Hence the interest is $130.06
