Find an explicit formula for the sequence 30\,,\,150\,,\,750\,,\,3750,...30,150,750,3750,...30, space, comma, space, 150, space,

The series shown is an geometric series and the explicit formula is given by:
an=ar^(n-1)
where
a=first term
n=number of terms
r=common ratio
from the sequence:
a=30
r=5
thus the explicit formula will be:
an=30(5)^(n-1)
hence the answer is:
an=30(5)^(n-1)
To find the perimeter of this blue figure, add together the shown lengths of the six sides.
The three measurements on the top have the LCD 4, so we combine 14 3/4, 4 2/4 and 8 2/4. The sum is 26 7/4, or 27 3/4, or 27.75.
The three measurements on the bottom share the LCD 5, so we can immediately combine them, obtaining 32 8/5, or 33 3/5, or 33.60.
Combining 27.75 and 33.60 results in 61.35, or 61 35/100, or 61 7/20.
The perimeter of the given figure is 61 7/20.
Answer: The consultant earn $50 each hour.
Explanation:
It is given that for 4 hours of work, the consultant charges $400. For 5 hours of work, she charges $450. The amount that a consultant charges for her work can be modeled using a linear function.
If the linear function represents the amount earn by consultant in hours the the coordinates can be written as (4, 400) and (5, 450).
If we want to find how much money does the consultant earn each hour, so first we have to find the slope of linear function which passing through two points (4, 400) and (5, 450).




In the linear function the slope show the earning of consultant per hour, therefore consultant earn $50 each hour.
