Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

During a sale at the market​, steaks sold for ​$2 and watermelons sold for ​$1.50. Declan spent ​$10 and bought a total of 6 steaks and watermelons. How many of each did he ​buy?

Let us represent

Steaks = x

Water melons = y

Our system of equations is given as:

x + y = 6.. Equation 1

x = 6 - y

During a sale at the market​, steaks sold for ​$2 and watermelons sold for ​$1.50.

$2× x + 1.5 × y = $10

2x + 1.5y = 10... Equation 2

Substitute

2(6 - y) + 1.5y = 10

12 - 2y + 1.5y = 10

12 - 10 = 2y - 1.5y

2 = 0.5y

y = 2/0.5

y = 4

What is the common ratio of the sequence?<br> -2,6,-18,54
aivan3 [116]

<u>ANSWER</u>

The common ratio is -3.

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

In general, the common ratio of a Geometric Sequence is given by:

r = \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}

We can find the common ratio using any two consecutive terms of the geometric sequence by dividing the subsequent term by the previous term.

The given sequence is -2,6,-18,54

Using the first two terms the common ratio is

r =  \frac{6}{ - 2}  =  - 3

We could also used the second and third terms to get

r =  \frac{ - 18}{6}  =  - 3

and so on and so forth.

Therefore the common ratio is -3.

Hillary is making a blanket for her mom. Three fourths of the blanket is green and the rest is yellow. Two thirds of the yellow
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hillary is making a blanket for her mom.

Let the total blanket = 1

Three-fourths of the blanket is green and the rest is yellow.

The fraction for the rest(yellow portion) = 1 - 3/4

The Lowest Common Denominator is 4

Hence,

4 - 3 /4 = 1/4

Two-thirds of the yellow part has her name on it.

The fraction of the blanket that will have her name on it is calculated as

2/3 of 1 /4

= 2/3 × 1/4

= 1/6
