-7x + 6 = 27
-7x = 21 (Subtract 6 from both sides)
x = -3 (Divide -7 from both sides)
Answer:The Collatz conjecture is a conjecture in mathematics that concerns a sequence defined as follows: start with any positive integer n. Then each term is obtained from the previous term as follows: if the previous term is even, the next term is one half the previous term. If the previous term is odd, the next term is 3 times the previous term plus 1.
Step-by-step explanation :an opinion or conclusion formed on the basis of incomplete information.
Answer: The value of the card after you buy your 8th coffee will be $61.3
Step-by-step explanation:
The worth of the gift card for the coffee shop is $90. Each day you use the card to get a coffee for $4.10. This means that the worth of the gift card is reducing by $4.10 each day. This rate is in arithmetic progression.
The formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence, Tn is expressed as
Tn = a + (n-1)d
Where a is the first term
d is the common difference
n is the number of days
From the information given,
a = $90
d = - $4.1
The explicit formula representing the amount of money available will be
Tn = 90 - 4.1(n - 1)
The value of the card after you buy your 8th coffee will be
T8 = 90 - 4.1(8 - 1) = T8 = 90 - 4.1×7
T8 = 90 - 28.7
T8 = $61.3
For this problem you can create a proportion.
Since 31,100 copies is 7.8% of the total copies spoke up to date you can make this proportion:
31,100. 7.8%
——— =. ———
x. 100%
Now you cross multiply and you will get
7.8x=3,110,000
After this you solve for x by isolating the variable.
7.8x/7.8. 3,110,000/7.8
x=398,717.949
Since the question asks you to round to the nearest whole number which is 7 then the final answer would be 398,718
Answer: There has been 398,718 copies sold to date.
