Answer:
1/8 of the budget was left for other expenses.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 of the budget - buildings and maintenance.
Administrative personnel : 1/4 + 1/8 = 2/8 + 1/8 = 3/8 of the budget.
Therefore:
3/8 of the budget - administrative personnel.
Public safety : 3/8 - 1/8 = 2/8 = 1/4 of the budget.
For other expenses :
1 - ( 1/4 + 3/8 + 1/4 ) = 1 - ( 2/8 + 3/8 + 2/8 ) 1 - 7/8 = 1/8
Finally, 1/8 of the total budget was for the other expenses.
Geometric progresión:
we can calculate any term, using this rule:
an=a₁*r^(n-1)
a₁=the first term
r=the common ratio
a₆=128
r=2
an=a₁ * r^(n-1)
128=a₁ * 2⁶⁻¹
128=a₁ * 2⁵
128=a₁ * 32
a₁=128/32=4
Solution: a₁=4
8 meters per second. You get this by dividing the amount of meters by the amount of seconds. 200/25=8.
10% = 0.10
300 x 0.10 = 30
discount = $30
sale price = 300 - 30 = $270
Answer:
The next two terms after a1 is
-6 and then 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Geometric sequence means your pattern for the terms is multiplication by the same number.
So a1 is the first term and r is your common ratio.
The common ratio is what you are multiplying by each time to figure out the next term.
So the geometric sequence goes like this:
a1 , a1*r , (a1*r)*r or a1*r^2 , a1*r^3 ,....
So anyways you have
first term a1=2
second term a2=2(-3)=-6
third term a3=-6(-3)=18
And so on...
