We are given the series of <span>a1 = -5 a2 = 20 a3 = -80. In this case, we can see that this is a geometric sequence with a geometric ratio equal to 20/-5 = -80/ 20 or equal to 4. Hence, r is equal to 4, a1 is equal to -5.
The geometric sequence formula is an = a1*r^(n-1) = -5 * (-4)^ (n-1) where n is an integer. Answer is B.</span>
Do you know what shoes thiefs wear?
Sneakers
infinity multiplied by anything (including infinity) equals infinity
(1 / 4) = .25
.25 * 100% = 25%
Uncle Bill ate 25%
Cousin Chris ate 15%
.3 * 100% = 30%
Cousin Timmy ate 30%
Little Dave ate 12%
You ate none.
Cousin Timmy ate the most, 18% of the turkey is left, and 82% of the turkey was eaten.
Defend my work in writing:
I converted my fractions and decimals to percents to find the different percents eaten for each person.
we have it has...
5n-2/8=n+8/3
you have to cross multiply..giving us
3(5n-2)=8(n+8)
15n-6=8n+64
collect like terms
15n-8n=64+6
7n=70
n=10
I really hope that helps..bye
