Let small cups = S

Large cups = L

They bought a total of 8 cups, so S + L = 8

Rewrite as S = 8-L (1st equation)

Then you also have

$3S + $5L = $30 (2nd equation)

Replace the S in the second equation with the first equation:

$3(8-L) + $5L = $30

Simplify:

24 - 3L + 5L = 30

Combine like terms:

24+2L = 30

Subtract 24 from both sides:

2L = 6

Divide both sides by 2:

L = 3

They bought 3 large cups

Since they bought a total of 8 cups, that means they bought 5 small cups ( 8-3=5)

Large = 3 cups, Small = 5 cups

Find a recurrence relation for the amount of money in a savings account after n years if the interest rate is 6 percent and $50
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

a_n = a_{n-1} (1.06) + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, a_0 is initial amount in the saving account,

Here, the annual interest rate is 6% and additional amount in each year is $ 50,

So, the amount after one year,

a_1 = a_0 + 6\%\text{ of }a_0 + 50 = a_0 + 0.06a_0 + 50 = a_0(1.06) + 50

Amount after 2 years,

a_2 = a_1 + 6\%\text{ of }a_1 + 50 = a_1(1.06) + 50

Amount after 3 years,

a_3 = a_2 + 6\%\text{ of }a_2 + 50 = a_2(1.06) + 50

................................., so on....

Hence, by following the pattern,

The amount after n years,

a_n = a_{n-1} (1.06) + 50

Which is the required recurrence relation for the amount of money in a savings account
