Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic:

a(n) = a +(n-1)d

a=15

d=5-15=-10

°.° a(n) = 15 +(n–1)-10

Geometric:

a(n)=a*r^(n-1)

a=15

r=5/15=1/3

a(n)=15*(1/3)^(n-1)

<h3 /><h3>permutations and combinations:</h3>

permutations and combinations, the various ways in which objects from a set may be selected, generally without replacement, to form subsets. This selection of subsets is called a permutation when the order of selection is a factor, a combination when order is not a factor. By considering the ratio of the number of desired subsets to the number of all possible subsets for many games of chance in the 17th century, the French mathematicians Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat gave impetus to the development of combinatorics and probability theory.

Raul has been offered three different jobs and must choose which one to accept. One of the factors he is considering is the pay

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

As the pay rate for Job C is the highest, so he must accept the offer from Job C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Raul would work 50 weeks of the year,

40 hours each week,

5 days each week,

and he would receive a 1-hour lunch break each day.

Pay rate for Job A = $35,000 / year

For Job B:

Pay rate = $15 / hour

He will work 40 hours each week.

As he works 5 days a week, so in 1 day he will work 40/5 = 8 hours.

He would receive a 1-hour break each day, for which he will not be paid, so he will receive a payment for 8-1=7 hours.

So, payment for 1 day = $15 x 7 = $105

As he works 5 days a week, so payment for 1 week = $105 x 5 = $525

As he works 50 weeks a year, so payment for 1 year = $525 x 50 = $26250.

So, the pay rate by Job B = $26250 /year

For Job C:

Pay rate = $750 / week

As he works 50 weeks a year, so payment for 1 year = $750 x 50 = $37500.

So, the pay rate by Job C = $37500 /year

As the pay rate for Job C is the highest, so he must accept the offer from Job C.

Solve for X and Y: <br> Y=2+7x and -2x+6y=-28

Furkat [3]

Answer:

x=-1 and y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

ሰላም!

Given expressions let them given as two equations

y=2+7x....... equation (1)
-2x+6y=-28..... equation (2)

Thus, substitute y=2+7x into equation (2)

$- 2x + 6(2 + 7x) = - 28 \\$

simplify it

$- 2x + 12 + 42x = - 28 \\ 40x + 12 = - 28$

subtract 12 from both sides

$40x + 12 - 12 = - 28 - 12 \\ 40x = - 40$

divide both sides by 40

$\frac{40x}{40} = \frac{ - 40}{40} \\ x = - 1$

Therefore, as we get the value of x=-1 substitute it to equation (1) and solve for variable y

$y = 2 + 7x \\ y = 2 + 7( -1 ) \\ y = 2 - 7 \\ y = - 5$

To be more sure make a cross check on both of the two expressions

Thus,

1) y=2+7x .... substitute y=-5 and x=-1 and check if it is equal

-5=2+7(-1)

-5=2-5

-5=-5

2)-2x+6y=-28... substitute and check

-2(-1)+6(-5)=-28

2-30=-28... (-a)(-b)=ab

-28=-28

Hope it helps!
