\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(1-0.5^6)}{1-0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(1-0.015625)}{0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=\dfrac{160(0.984378)}{0.5}

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=80(0.984378)

\\ \sf\longmapsto S_n=78.75

Answer:

s _6 = 315

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

a = First term

r ,= common ratio

Now let's use this formula to find the sum of the above geometric series

s _n =  \frac{a(1 -  {r}^{n} )}{(1 - r)}  \\  \\ s _6 =  \frac{160(1 -  {0.5}^{6} )}{(1 - 0.5)}  \\  \\ s _6 =  \frac{160 (1 - 0.015625)}{0.5}  \\  \\ s _6 =  \frac{157.5}{0.5}  \\  \\ s _6 = 315

Hope this helps you.

Which order pair lies on the line 2x-y= -5
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Let's solve for x.

2x−y=−5

Step 1: Add y to both sides.

2x−y+y=−5+y

2x=y−5

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=y-5/2

Answer:

x=1/2y+-5/2

A bank loaned out $8200, part of it at a rate of 7.9% per year and the rest of it at a rate of 7.4% per year. The total amount o
Lady bird [3.3K]

The amount that the bank loaned out at 7.9% is $1,574.00

How do represent the amounts lent at different rates?

On the assumption that x amount was loaned at 7.9% and that the remaining amount, (8,200-x) was loan out at 7.4%, we can determine the interest charged on each loan as the loan multiplied by the interest rate

interest on 7.9% loan=7.9%*x=0.079x

interest on 7.4% loan=7.4%*(8200-x)

interest on 7.4% loan=606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.079x+606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.005x+606.80

total interest on loans=614.67

614.67=0.005x+606.80

614.67-606.80=0.005x

7.87=0.005x

x=7.87/0.005

x=amount loaned at 7.9%=$1,574.00

y=$8200-$1574

y=$6,626.00

Which point on the graph is a direct variation equation in which k=12.4
frez [133]

Answer:

The correct answer would be A) (4, 49.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation, we first have to start with the base form of direct variation.

y = kx

Now we input the k value.

y = 12.4x

Now that we have this, we can try the ordered pairs and look for which satisfies the equation.

y = 12.4x

49.4 = 12.4(4)

49.4 = 49.4

Since this is the true statement, this is the ordered pair that works.
