Answer:

$38.64/4 = $9.66

its $9.66 for each yard

so $9.66 multiplied by 6 = $57.96

she should expect to pay $57.96 extra.

Serhud [2]

Given:

Dimensions of Kendra's yard are 24.6 feet by 14.8 feet.

To find:

The area of her yard.

Solution:

Let as consider,

Length of yard = 24.6 ft

Width of yard = 14.8 ft

We know that,

Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Using the above formula, we get the area of her yard.

Area=24.6\times 14.8

Area=364.08

Area of her yard is 364.08 ft² and without including the units ft², we get 364.08.

Therefore, the area of her yard is 364.08.

Nina [5.8K]

The maximum units is 200 and , Total revenue is $8,000

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , A manufacturer finds that the revenue generated by selling of cortan commodity is given by function R(x)=80x-0.2x^ 2 , where he maximum reveremany should be manufactured to obtain this maximum units .Let's find out:

We have following function as R(x)=80x-0.2x^ 2 . Let's differentiate this and equate it to zero to find value of x for which the function is maximum!

⇒ R(x)=80x-0.2x^ 2

⇒ \frac{d(R(x))}{dx}=\frac{d(80x-0.2x^ 2)}{dx}

⇒ \frac{d(R(x))}{dx}=\frac{d(80x)}{dx}-\frac{d(0.2x^ 2)}{dx}}

⇒ 0=80-2x(0.2)

⇒ \frac{80}{0.4}=x

⇒ x=200

Now , Value of function at x=200 is :

⇒ R(200)=80(200)-0.2(200)^ 2

⇒ R(200)=16000-8000

⇒ R(200)=8000

Therefore , The maximum units is 200 and , Total revenue is $8,000

A radioactive substance decreases in the amount of grams by one-third each year. If the starting amount of the
katovenus [111]

Answer:

The sequence is geometric. The recursive formula is a_{n}=2/3a_{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you have to calculate the amount of the substance left after the end of each year to obtain a sequence and then you have to determine if the sequence is arithmetic or geometric.

The substance decreases by one-third each year, therefore:

After 1 year:

1452-\frac{1}{3}(1452)

Using 1452 as a common factor and solving the fraction:

1452(1-\frac{1}{3})=1452(\frac{2}{3})=968

You can notice that in general, after each year the amount of grams is the initial amount of the year multiplied by 2/3

After 2 years:

968(\frac{2}{3})=\frac{1936}{3}

After 3 years:

\frac{1936}{3}(\frac{2}{3})=\frac{3872}{9}

The sequence is:

1452,968,1936/3,3872/9....

In order to determine if the sequence is geometric, you have to calculate the ratio of two consecutive terms and see if the ratio is the same for all two consecutive terms. The ratio is obtained by dividing a term by the previous term.

The sequence is arithmetic if the difference of two consecutive terms is the same for all two consecutive terms.

-Calculating the ratio:

For the first and second terms:

968/1452=2/3

For the second and third terms:

1936/3 ÷ 968 = 2/3

In conclussion, the sequence is geometric because the ratio is common.

The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is given by:

a_{n}=ra_{n-1}

where an is the nth term, r is the common ratio and an-1 is the previous term.

In this case, r=2/3
