The nth term of a geometric sequence is found from the following formula:n _{th} \ term=a _{1} r^{(n-1)}
Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:
a _{6} =8r^{5}=-8192
r^{5}=-1028
from which the common ratio r = -4.
Now we can use the value of r to find the required 12th term, as follows:
a_{12} =8(-4)^{11}=-33,554,432

The value of nth term is calculated by the equation,
                                an = (a1) x r^(n - 1)
Using this equation to find for the common ratio,
                                -8192 = 8 x r^(6 - 1)
The value or r is -4. Using the same equation to find for the 12th term,
                                a12 = 8 x (-4)^(12 - 1)
                                 a12 = -33554432

A television was originally priced at $598.00. The price was reduced by 6%. What is the new price of the television?
aksik [14]
Hello.

To find the answer of this question, you need to find 6% of 598. 
6 / 100 = 0.06. 0.06 x 598 = 35.88. So now all you have to do is subtract 35.88 from 598. 598 - 35.88 = 562.12.

So the new price of the television is 562.12.

Have a great day! :)

Callies family spends an average of $70 per month electric at that rate what can that family expect to pay electric for 1 year
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

$840

Step-by-step explanation:

Callies family spends an average of $70 per month electric. At that rate what can that family expect to pay electric for 1 year

Note that:

1 year = 12 months.

Hence, if:

1 month = $70

12 months = $x

Cross Multiply

$x = 12 × $70

$x = $840

Therefore, the amount that family can expect to pay in 1 year(12 month) for electric = $840
