Answer:
= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of a geometric sequence is
= a
where a is the first term and r the common ratio
Here a = 6 and r = 30 ÷ 6 = 5, thus
= 6
First off, "whatever%" of "anything" is just (whatever/100) * anything
part A)
so... firm A got 11,000 invested, turned a profit of 24%, how much is 24% of 11000? well (24/100) * 11000
firm B got 14,000 invested, and returned 15% in profits, how much is 15% of 14000? (15/100) * 14000
part B)
for the amounts above, we get 2640 and 2100 respectively
so, the total profit "amount" is 2640 + 2100 or 4740
the total investement was 11000+14000 = 25000
if 25000 is the 100%, how much is 4740 in percentage?

solve for "x"
Answer:
y = (1/3)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.
The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.
The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.
m = 1/3
x = -3
y = 6
y = mx + b <----- Slope-intercept form
6 = (-3)(1/3) + b <----- Insert values
6 = -1 + b <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3
7 = b <----- Add 1 to both sides
Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.
y = (1/3)x + 7
