Answer:

$245,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the intial cost = x

$100\% + 36\% = 136\% = 1.36$

$1.36x = 333200$

$x = \frac{333200}{1.36}$

$x = 245000$

She would have to pay $3.40 I think. A 12-pack is half the size of a 24-pack so I did half the price.

Mr. blue's first year salary is $30,000 and it doubles each year. what is the explicit rule for the sequence in simplified form?

trasher [3.6K]

Answer: Explicit Rule: a_n=30,000 • 2^n-1

Recursive Rule: a_n = 2a_n-1; a_1 = 30,000

Step-by-step explanation: the explicit rule for a geometric sequence is a_n = a_1 • r^n-1 and the recursive rule is a_n= r • a_n -1.
a_1 is the first term of the sequence, which is this case is 30,000. R is the common ration, which is 2 since it doubles each time. Substitute those numbers into the formulas and that’s what you’ll get. Hope this helps. God bless you!!!
