Answer:

  • 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • t = the number of taffy bags
  • c = the number of caramel bags
  • Number of taffy's are 5 more than caramel bags
  • Taffy bags weigh 8 ounces and caramel bags weigh 16 ounces
  • Total weight is 400 ounces

<u>Equations:</u>

  • t = c + 5             (the difference in number of bags)
  • 8t + 16c = 400  (the weight of the bags)

<u>Simplify the second equation by dividing all terms by 8:</u>

  • t + 2c = 50

<u>Substitute t and solve for c:</u>

  • c + 5 + 2c = 50
  • 3c = 50 - 5
  • 3c = 45
  • c = 45/3
  • c = 15

<u>Find the value of t:</u>

  • t = 15 + 5 = 20

<u>Answer:</u>

  • 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags

Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence. Then find the fifth term in the sequence.
mr_godi [17]
The sequence:  a 1 = - 4,  a 2 = 8,  a 3 = -16,...
a 2 = a 1 * r
8 = - 4 * r
r = 8 : ( - 4 ) 
r = - 2
a n = a 1 * r^(n-1)
a 5 = - 4 * ( - 2 ) ^4 = - 4 * 16 = - 64
Answer:
The fifth term in the sequence is - 64.

A

Step-by-step explanation:

First and foremost, we can rule out B and C because they are less than one and would make the hexagon smaller instead of bigger. Now, when we measure the units, we see that it goes up by 2 squares on the graph. So, by process of elimination and measurement, we get the answer of A.
