The cost of 8 pounds of oranges based on the total cost of 5 pounds bought is 12.00
What is the cost for a pound of oranges?
The cost of a pound of oranges based on the rate at which 5 pounds were bought and 8 pounds would also be bought is determined as the amount paid for 5 pounds of oranges divided by the number of pounds of oranges bought
cost per pound of oranges=cost of 5 pounds/5 pounds
cost per pound of oranges=7.50/5
cost per pound of oranges=1.50
Based on the 1.50 per pound, the cost of 8 pounds is the cost per pound multiplied by 8 pounds
cost of 8 pounds of oranges=1.50*8pounds
cost of 8 pounds of oranges=12.00

Given a term in a geometric sequence and the common ratio find the first five terms, the explicit formula, and the recursive formula. Given two terms in a geometric sequence find the 8th term and the recursive formula. Determine if the sequence is geometric. If it is, find the common ratio.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Two solutions exist,
2(x - 1) = 8
2x - 2 = 8
2x = 10
x = 5
&
2(x + 1) = 8
2x + 2 = 8
2x = 6
x = 3
the two solutions are 5 and 3
<span>The logic in the sequence is --> +2, +2, +3, +3, +4, +4, +5, +5, +6, +6 and so on...
So, </span><span>the next number in the sequence would be 24+5 = 29
So, the answer is --> c.29
