Yes, the 36" shelf can hold all 24 books.  As 5/4=1.25" meaning, you take 1.25X24=30".  So 24 books only take up 30 inches of a 36 inch shelf.

.Given the functions f(n) = 500 and g(n) = (nine tenths)n _ 1, combine them to create a geometric sequence, an, and solve for th
weeeeeb [17]
The original functions are: f(n) = 500 and g(n) = [9/10]^(n-1)

A geometric sequence combining them is: An = f(n)*g(n) = 500*[9/10]^(n-1):

Some terms are:
A1= 500
A2 = 500*[9/10]
A3 = 500*[9/10]^2
A4 = 500*[9/10]^3
....
A11 = 500*[9/10]^10 ≈ 174.339

Answer: the third option, An = 500[9/10]^(n-1); A11 = 174.339
