Answer:
The number of people that received copies of the letter at the twentieth stage is<em> 9.537 × 10¹³ </em>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the discrete model,
a_k = r a_(k-1) for all integers k ≥ 1 and a₀ = a
then,
aₙ = a rⁿ for all integers n ≥ 0
Let a_k be equal to the number of people who receive a copy of the chain letter at a stage k.
Initially, one person has the chain letter (which the person will send to five other people at stage 1). Thus,
a = a₀ = 1
The people who received he chain letter at stage (k - 1), will send a letter to five people at stage k and thus per person at stage (k - 1), five people will receive the letter. Therefore,
a_k = 5 a_(k - 1)
Thus,
aₙ = a rⁿ = 1 · 5ⁿ = 5ⁿ
The number of people that received copies of the letter at the twentieth stage is
<em>a₂₀ = (5)²⁰ = 9.537 × 10¹³ copies</em>
Answer:
P(A^B) = 22/15 or 1 7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the P (A^B), we add the probability of events A and B.
2/3 + 4/5 = P, we need to find the LCD to add disimilar fractions
LCD is 15.
2(5)/15 +4(3)/15 = 10/15 + 12/15 = 22/15
If the pattern continues, it could be 2.75 * 63.63 repeating to get to the end of the card. The second answer is 63. When she started the card, she had $175. Divide 175 by 2.75 and you get 63 repeating.

<em>The answer is Ms Hernandez can bring up to 6 people to the zoo.</em>
<em />
<em>x - the number of people that she can bring to the zoo</em>
<em>The parking will cost $7: a = 7</em>
<em>Admission tickets will cost $15.50 per person: b = 15.50x</em>
<em>She can spend on parking and admission tickets $100:</em>
a + b ≤ 100
a = 7
b = 15.50x
7 + 15.50x ≤ 100
15.50x ≤ 100 - 7
15.50x ≤ 93
x ≤ 93 / 15.50
x ≤ 6
