Answer:

$185.17

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly dollar amounts saved here form a geometric progression, since each new amount is derived by multiplying the previous amount by 1.10.  This 1.10 is r, the common ratio.  The first term is $24 and there will be 5 more terms (June through December is 6 months).

The general formula for individual terms of a geometric series is A(n) = A(1) + r^(n - 1).

Here, with A(1) = $24 (the first term), r =1.10 and n = 6, we'd get $38.65 (the 6th and last term).  Following the same procedure, we'd find that the 6 terms will have the values $24, $26.40, $29.04, $31.94, $35.14. $38.65.  

Finally, we add these up.  We get the sum $185.17.

Fortunately, there's a formula that makes the calculations go much faster:  "sum of a geometric sequence."  This formula is:

        1 - r ^n

a(1)*--------------

           1 - r

Here, a(1) = $24 and r = 1.10, and so the sum of the first 6 terms of this geometric sequence is

          1 - 1.10^6

$24*---------------- = $185.17

             1 - 1.10

Fill in the graph function 2 and 3
nordsb [41]

For the function 1,
To find the equation for this function, first you take any two points and from these points you will find the slope of line and then put it in the equation of line.
(x₁,y₁)=(0,4)
(x₂,y₂)=(1,7)

slope=m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁
              =7-4/1-0
              =3/1
              =3

Equation of a line

f(x)=mx+c

where m is the slope and c is the y intercept.

f(x)=3x+4


For the function 2,

As you have given the equation of a function which is

f(x)=-2x+3

you can easily fill the table,

I do it for one value for other values you will do the same procedure.

For x=-2

f(x)=-2(-2)+3

= 7

x         f(x)

-----------------

-2         7

-1         5

0          3

1          1

2         -1


For the Function 3,

You can get the values from the graph directly but you can also solve it by finding the equation first and then by putting method you get the value.

Equation of a line

f(x)=mx+c

where m is the slope and c is the y intercept.


m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

(x₁,y₁)=(0,-3)

(x₂,y₂)=(6,0)

m=(0-(-3))/(6-0)

m=1/2

f(x)=1/2x-3

x         f(x)

-----------------

-2         -4

-1         -7/2

0           -3

1           -5/2

2             -2

The graph of function 1 and 2 are attached below.

A field is 140 yards long and 90 yards wide. find its area in square feet
Debora [2.8K]

Convert the yards to feet.

1 yard = 3 feet.

140 yards x 3 feet per yard = 420 feet.

90 yards x 3 feet per yard = 270 feet.


Area = 420 x 270 = 113,400 square feet.

Katena32 [7]

Area = Length x width

Area = 8 x 8 = 64 square yards

Total cost = area x cost per square yard
