Answer
20% for the first one
Each truck weighs five tons.
1st truck: n
2nd truck: n + 2
3rd truck: n + 4
4th truck: n + 6
n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = 32
4n + 12 = 32
- 12 - 12
--------------------
4n = 20

4 4
n = 5
Answer:
an = 4^(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The three given terms have a common ratio of 4:
4/1 = 16/4 = 4
So, this can be described by the function for a geometric sequence:
an = a1×r^(n -1)
where an is the n-th term, a1 is the first term (1) and r is the common ratio (4).
an = 1×4^(n-1)
an = 4^(n -1) . . . . . simplified
Step-by-step explanation:
what do we need to do ?
just calculate the value of the expression by using the given values for the variables ?
what's the problem ? this is just basic calculation.
8/4 + 7×9 = 2 + 63 = 65
remember (please, for your life !) that multiplication and division always happens before any addition or subtraction (except for the case, where brackets force us in a different direction).
