Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Common ratio r = a₂/a₁ = 16/(-4) = -4
a₄ = a₃(-4) = 256
a₅ = a₄(-4) = -1024
a₆ = a₅(-4) = 4096
The original price = what the woman paid + <span>discount
= 32.50 + 16 2/3
= 32.50 + 50/3
convert to one form of fractions (improper or decimal)
= 49 1/6
= 49.16
--------------------------------------
In case of 16 2/3 % discount of the original price:
price after discount = price before discount - discount
= x - 16 2/3 % of x
= x - 01667x
</span><span> = 0.833 x</span>
<span><span> 32.5 = 0.833 x
then x = 32.5/0.833 = 39.015 =~ 39
</span>hope that helps

Total number of cookies sold:
----------------------------------------------------
54 + 100 + 46 = 200
----------------------------------------------------
Percentage of cookies sold by Dawn:
----------------------------------------------------
46/200 x 100 = 23%
----------------------------------------------------

Solve for the bracelet first.
x represents number of beads for bracelet
So it would be number of beads for the bracelet + number of beads for necklace (5x) and they both equal 192
x + 5x = 192
Then you would add the x and 5x.<br />6x = 192
Now all you have to do is divide by 6 on both sides.
6× ÷ 6 = 192 ÷ 6
You know have the number of beads it takes for a bracelet.
x = 32
to get the necklace all you need to do is multiply it by 5 because you need 5 times more for the necklace.
32 × 5
total beads needed is 160.
160
x+5x=192
6×=192
6x÷6=192÷6
x=32
necklace needs 32x5
beads per necklace is 160
