Answer:
Plan 1: 7,300p Plan 2: 9,125. Plan 3: 8,030
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 and -8 both multiply to 40 -5 x -8 = 40 and both add up to -13. -5 + -8 = -13. two negative numbers when added together the answer is still negative. ex: if i owe 2 dollars to someone and 2 to another i owe 4 in total
Sequence: 5/2, 5/4, 5/8, 5/16
a8=?
a1=5/2
a2=5/4
a3=5/8
a4=5/16
a2/a1=(5/4)/(5/2)=(5/4)*(2/5)=(5*2)/(4*5)=2/4=1/2
a3/a2=(5/8)/(5/4)=(5/8)*(4/5)=(5*4)/(8*5)=4/8=1/2
a4/a3=(5/16)/(5/8)=(5/16)*(8/5)=(5*8)/(16*5)=8/16=1/2
Ratio: r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3→r=1/2
an=a1*r^(n-1)
a1=5/2, r=1/2
an=(5/2)*(1/2)^(n-1)
an=(5/2)*[1^(n-1)/2^(n-1)]
an=(5/2)*[1/2^(n-1)]
an=(5*1)/[2*2^(n-1)]
an=5/2^(1+n-1)
an=5/2^n
n=8→a8=5/2^8
a8=5/256
Answers:
The formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence is an=5/2^n
a8=5/256
The best way to solve this is by giving a visual idea of the glass ornaments. so We will have letter G represent Green, O for Orange, B for Brown, P for Purple.
Sample 1:G,O,B,P
Sample 2:G,P,O,B
Sample 3:P,G,O,B
Sample 4:O,G,P,B
Sample 5:G,O,P,B
This is what you can do this should be the right amount of ways to arrange them.
8x + 7y = 39
4x - 14y = -68
(multiply each term in second equation by -2)
8x + 7y = 39
-8x + 28y = 136
(add both equations)
35y = 175
(divide both sides by 35)
y = 5
(substitute value of y in one of the equations)
8x + 7(5) = 39
8x + 35 = 39
8x = 4
x = 1/2
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)
