Answer:
D. a1=23/100, r=1/100
Step-by-step explanation:
The repeating fraction can be written as the sum ...

The first term is a1 = 0.23 = 23/100, and each successive term is shifted 2 decimal places to the right, so is multiplied by the common ratio r=1/100.
Answer:
f(x) = x³ - 5x² - 9x + 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x = a, x = b are the zeros of a polynomial, then
(x - a), (x - b) are the factors and f(x) is the product of the factors.
Here the zeros are x = - 3, x = 3 and x = 5, thus
(x + 3), (x - 3) and (x - 5) are the factors and
f(x) = (x + 3)(x - 3)(x - 5) ← expand the first pair of factors using FOIL
= (x² - 9)(x - 5) ← distribute
= x³ - 5x² - 9x + 45
Possibly $16.89 because you multiply 55.08 and .08 to find 4.41 then you subtract that to 55.08 to find the total cost without tax which is 50.67. Then you divide by 3 because there are 3 girls to 16.89.
