Answer:

<h3>C. 800</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation used to calculate the amount of profit, p, made from selling n candy bars expressed as  p = 1.50n – 500

To find the number of candies sold for $700, we are going to substitute p = $700 into the given expression and find n as shown;

700 =  1.50n - 500

Add 500 to both sides

700+500 = 1.50n-500+500

1200 = 1.50n

Divide both sides by 1.50

1200/1.50 = 1.50n/1.50

800 = n

Rearrange

n = 800

Hence 800 candy bars must be sold to make $700 profit

Consider a geometric sequence with a first term of 4 and a fourth term of -2.916.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

a) Find the common ratio of this sequence.

Answer: -0.82

b) Find the sum to infinity of this sequence.

Answer: 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term in geometric series is given by 4\ th \ term = ar^n-1\\-2.196 = 4r^{4-1} \\-2.196/4 = r^{3} \\r = \sqrt[3]{0.549} \\r = 0.82

where

a is the first term

r is the common ratio and

n is the nth term

_________________________________

given

a = 4

4th term = -2.196

let

common ratio of this sequence. be r

4\ th \ term = ar^n-1\\-2.196 = 4r^{4-1} \\-2.196/4 = r^{3} \\r = \sqrt[3]{-0.549} \\r = -0.82

a) Find the common ratio of this sequence.

answer: -0.82

sum of infinity of geometric sequence is given by = a/(1-r)

thus,

sum to infinity of this sequence = 4/(1-(-0.82) = 4/1.82 = 2.2

Given A(-3, 6) and B(0, 6), what are the coordinates of point P that lies on segment AB, such that AP:PB = 2:1? A: (2, -2) B: (-
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

(-1 1/2, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The mid point between A(-3,6) and B(0,6) represents the coordinates of point P, which is (x,y)

Hence,the coordinates, that is, AP: x = (-3 + 0)/2 = -3/2 = -1 1/2

also, BP: y = (6 + 6)/2 = 6

Therefore, the coordinates of point P = ( -1 1/2, 6)
