Hey there!
If the price per orange is $.26 and we want to know how many oranges he bought and we have our total, we can set o equal to how many oranges he got and set up an algebraic equation:
0.26o = 2.08
We multiply .26 by o because o is how many oranges he bought and that's what we're solving for- so we multiply by the unit price.
To isolate o, we divide both sides by .26 to get:
The answer is C- Jim bought 8 oranges.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
98.9
Step-by-step explanation:
115 - 20% = 92
92 + 7.5% = 98.9
What is the 9th term of the geometric sequence 4, -20, 100, ...
<span>First term, a = 4 </span>
<span>common ratio, r = –20 / 4 = –5 </span>
<span>..... ..... ..... ..... = 100 / –20 = –5 </span>
<span>9th term = 4 ( –5 ) ^ ( 9 - 1 ) </span>
<span>..... ...... = 4 ( –5 ) ^ 8 </span>
<span>..... ...... = 4 ( 390,625 ) </span>
<span>..... ...... = 1,562,500 </span>
