Find an explicit rule for the nth term of the sequence.The second and fifth terms of a geometric sequence are 18 and 144, respec

vova2212 [387]

Given:

second term = 18

fifth term = 144

The nth term of a geometric sequence is:

$\begin{gathered} a_n\text{ = ar}^{n-1} \\ Where\text{ a is the first term} \\ r\text{ is the common ratio} \end{gathered}$

Hence, we have:

$\begin{gathered} \text{ar}^{2-1}\text{ = 18} \\ ar\text{ = 18} \\ \\ ar^{5-1}=\text{ 144} \\ ar^4\text{ =144} \end{gathered}$

Divide the expression for the fifth term by the expression for the second term:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{ar^4}{ar}\text{ = }\frac{144}{18} \\ r^3\text{ = }\frac{144}{18} \\ r\text{ = 2} \end{gathered}$

Substituting the value of r into any of the expression:

$\begin{gathered} ar\text{ = 18} \\ a\text{ }\times\text{ 2 = 18} \\ Divide\text{ both sides by 2} \\ \frac{2a}{2}\text{ =}\frac{18}{2} \\ a\text{ = 9} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the explicit rule for the sequence is:

$a_n\text{ = 9\lparen2\rparen}^{n-1}$

Answer:

Let P represent the number of pies sold and J represent the number of juices sold.

The first equation for the sum of the sales:

P + J = 79

P = 79 - J

Next, for the sum of the amounts earned:

1.65P + 1.36J = 118.17

Substituting P,

1.65 (79 - J) + 1.36J = 118.17

J = 42

Using this value of J,

P = 79 - 42

P = 37

Mr. Sanchez's class earned: 1.65 x 37 = $61.05

Mr. Kelly's class earned: 1.36 x 42 = $57.12

So Mr. Sanchez's class earned more money.

c) Mr. Sanchez's class earned:

61.05 - 57.12

= $3.93 more than Mr. Kelly's class
