Answer:

A) Seattle's sales were 40.42% larger than Portland's.

B) Portland sales were 28.79% smaller than Seattle's.

C)  Portland sales were 71.21% of Seattle's.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a company's sales in Seattle were $ 330,000 in 2012, while their sales in Portland were $ 235,000 for the same year, the following calculations must be performed to complete the sentences:

A)

235,000 = 100

330,000 = X

330,000 x 100 / 235,000 = X

33,000,000 / 235,000 = X

140.42 = X

Seattle's sales were 40.42% larger than Portland's.

B)

330,000 = 100

235,000 = X

235,000 x 100 / 330,000 = X

23,500,000 / 330,000 = X

71.21 = X

100 - 71.21 = 28.79

Portland sales were 28.79% smaller than Seattle's.

C)

330,000 = 100

235,000 = X

235,000 x 100 / 330,000 = X

23,500,000 / 330,000 = X

71.21 = X

Portland sales were 71.21% of Seattle's.

At school athletic events you can buy 3 drinks and 2 hot dogs for $4.80 or you can buy 1 drink and 1 hot dog for $2.00. How much
mariarad [96]
Let the cost of each drink is $x and the cost of each hot dog is $y.
According to the given data, 3 drinks and 2 hot dogs cost $4.80. In equation form, we can write it as:

3x+2y=4.80

1 drink and 1 hot dog costs $2.00. In equation form, we can write it as:

x+y=2
x=2-y

Using this value of x in first equation, we get:


3(2-y)+2y=4.80 \\ &#10;6-3y+2y=4.80 \\ &#10;6-y=4.80 \\ &#10;y=6-4.80 \\ &#10;y= 1.20

Thus the cost of one hot dog is $1.20

What is the explicit formula for this sequence?
kati45 [8]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

With the recursive formula, lets build the sequence:

A1 = 4

A2 = A1 - 7

A3 = A2 - 7

A4 = A3 - 7

A5 = A4 - 7

(...)

But pay attention to A3....

A3 = A2 - 7   but  A2 = A1 - 7 , so rewriting A3

A3 = (A1 - 7) - 7 ⇒ A3 = A1 + 2.(- 7)

A4 = A3 - 7 ⇒ A4 = [(A1 - 7) - 7] - 7 = A1 + 3.(- 7)

A5 =  {[(A1 - 7) - 7] - 7} - 7 = A5 + 4.(- 7)  

so

<h3>An = A1 + (n - 1).(- 7)</h3>
