Determine if the sequence below is arithmetic or geometric and determine the

1 answer:

6 0

A1=5
a2=15
a3=45
a2/a1=15/5=3
a3/a4=45/15=3
Sequence is geometric-the ration of each term and previous term is CONSTANT. Ratio is: 3
There is no common difference (d), as sequins not arithmetic.

d=a(n) - a(n-1)
a(n) is last term
a(n-1) is the previous term
d=45-15
d=30
d=15-5=10
The difference between each number in sequence is not the same therefore, there is not common difference.

Good luck.

The cell phone plan from Company C costs $10 per month, plus $15 per gigabyte for data used. The plan from Company D costs $80 p

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

C(g) = 10 + 15g

C'(g) = 80

The monthly charges of Company C for using 2 Gigabyte of data usage.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cell phone plan from Company C costs $10 per month, plus $15 per gigabyte for data used. The plan from Company D costs $80 per month, with unlimited data.

Now, the monthly cost in Company C for using g gigabyte of data will be

C(g) = 10 + 15g ........ (1)

Again, the monthly cost in Company D for using g gigabyte of data will be

C'(g) = 80 ......... (2)

Now, from equation (1), the statement C(2) = 10 + 15 × 2 = 40, means that monthly charges of Company C for using 2 Gigabyte of data usage. (Answer)
