Answer:

$59. 85 or rounding, $60 (I AM NOT COMPLETELY SURE)

Step-by-step explanation

I changed the percentage into a decimal (.05) and then multiplied it by the final price (57). After multiplying, I got, $2.85. I then added that to the final price to get, $59.85.

Answer:

from least to greatest 112 121 124 137 147 156 173 189

Step-by-step explanation:

if you subtract each number from a number that is greater than all the numbers for example 200 then what ever has the most left will be greatest and least will be least for example 121 - 200 is negative 79 and 189 - 200 is negative 11 negative 11 is higher so its a greater number there is also easier ways to do this but this is just extra

The properties of the mathematical sequence allow us to find that the recurrence term is 1 and the operation for each sequence is

a) Subtraction

b) Addition

c) AdditionSum

d) in this case we have two possibilities

* If we move to the right the addition

* If we move to the left the subtraction

The sequence is a set of elements arranged one after another related by some mathematical relationship. The elements of the sequence are called terms.

The sequences shown can be defined by recurrence relations.

Let's analyze each sequence shown, the ellipsis indicates where the sequence advances.

a) ... -7, -6, -5, -4, -3

We can observe that each term has a difference of one unit; if we subtract 1 from the term to the right, we obtain the following term

-3 -1 = -4

-4 -1 = -5

-7 -1 = -8

Therefore the mathematical operation is the subtraction.

b) $0. \sqrt{1}. \sqrt{4}, \sqrt{9}, \sqrt{16}, \sqrt{25}$ ...

In this case we can see more clearly the sequence when writing in this way

$0, \sqrt{1^2}. \sqrt{2^2}, \sqrt{3^2 } . \sqrt{4^2} , \sqrt{5^2}$

each term is found by adding 1 to the current term,

$\sqrt{(0+1)^2} = \sqrt{1^2} \\\sqrt{(1+1)^2} = \sqrt{2^2}\\\sqrt{(2+1)^2} = \sqrt{3^2}\\\sqrt{(5+1)^2} = \sqrt{6^2}$

Therefore the mathematical operation is the addition

c) $... \frac{-10}{2}. \frac{-8}{2}, \frac{-6}{2}, \frac{-4}{2}. \frac{-2}{2}. ...$

The recurrence term is unity, with the fact that the sequence extends to the right and to the left the operation is

To move to the right add 1

- $\frac{-10}{2} + 1 = \frac{-10}{2} - \frac{2}{2} = \frac{-8}{2}\\\frac{-8}{2} + \frac{2}{2} = \frac{-6}{2}$

To move left subtract 1

$\frac{-2}{2} - 1 = \frac{-4}{2}\\\frac{-4}{2} - \frac{2}{2} = \frac{-6}{2}$

Using the properties the mathematical sequence we find that the recurrence term is 1 and the operation for each sequence is

a) Subtraction

b) Sum

c) Sum

d) This case we have two possibilities

If we move to the right the sum

If we move to the left we subtract

Hey you!<br><br> I think I need your help with this one - Thanks~

Hey Gary!

The volume of a cylinder is PiR^2h, or 3.14(r^2)h.
Let's define our measures.
Pi is 3.14 (simplified). However, our answer is requested in terms of Pi.
Our radius is 5.
Our height is 14.
Let's plug in our numbers.

5^2 • 14 • Pi
5^2 = 25
25 • 14 = 350.

350Pi is our answer.
However, rememver that we need to end our answer in units cubed, as we are using a 3-dimensional figure. Our answer is 350Pi in^3.
Your answer is B.)

I hope this helps!

Four students each contribute $12 to buy a pizza, salad, and large soda. How much would each student pay if two more students al

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4 students contribute 12$ Each.

So, total amount becomes 12 x 4 = 48$

If two more students contribute it makes a total of 6 students.
so we now divide the 48$ by 6
48/6=8$
