Answer:
$35.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of pints sold is ...
(12.5 gal)×(8 pt/gal) = 100 pt
Then the total amount received for the milk is ...
(100 pt)($0.35/pt) = $35.00
Sequence: -4, 8, -16
rate of increase: -16/8 = -2
If you make A1 the first term in the sequence you must use (n-1) in the explicit formula. If you go backwards in the sequence to find A0 = 2 then you would use n.
The don't have A0 = 2 listed as an option so we use A1 = -4 and (n-1) terms.
An = -4(-2)^(n-1)
Solving for the 5th term A5, use n = 5
A5 = -4(-2)^(5-1)
A5 = -4(16)
A5 = -64
So the answer is B.
