Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form for the explicit formula of a geometric sequence is given by:

Where a is the initial term, r is the common ratio, and n is the nth term.
Our sequence is: 8, 4, 2, 1...
So, we can see that our initial term or a is 8.
Each subsequent term is half of the previous one. So, our common ratio is 1/2.
Let's substitute 8 for a and 1/2 for r to acquire:

So, our answer is C.
And we're done!
Answer:
CM = 16
MD = 16
CD = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x
3x + 1 = 8x - 24 (we know that M is the mid point so both of the lines will be equal)
Transpose
1 + 24 = 8x - 3x
25 = 5x
x = 25/5
x = 5
CM = 3x + 1
= 3(5) + 1
= 15 +1
= 16
MD = 8x - 24
= 8(5) - 24
= 40 - 24
= 16
CD = CM + MD
= 16 + 16
= 32
Answer:
(3X -8) (X +2)
=(3X^2 + 6X - 8X -16)
use the quadratic formula
a=3
b=-2
c=-16
therefore your x=8/3 or -2
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
this is i ready lol but basically the actual answer is -1.5 but if you round that you get -2
Answer:
2% gain
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the shopkeeper bought the appliances at the indicated prices, and that gain is computed on the basis of that cost price.
Since the base cost is the same for each appliance, the percentages can be added directly to find the percentage gain on 8000. However, the shopkeeper's total outlay was 16000, not 8000, so the final gain percentage is half of that total.
gain percent = (-4% + 8%)/2 = 2%
_____
If you want to see the actual numbers:
Loss on VCR = 4% × 8000 = 320.
Gain on TV = 8% × 8000 = 640.
Total gain on 16000 is -320 +640 = 320. As a percentage, that is ...
320/16000 × 100% = 2%
