The first question :

a(n) = a(1) \times  {q}^{n - 1}

In which :

q =  \frac{a(n)}{a(n - 1)}  \\

Thus ;

a(12) = a(1) \times  {q}^{12 - 1}

a(1) = 6 \:  \:  \: and \:  \:  \: q =  \frac{18}{6}  = 3 \\

So :

a(12) = 6 \times  {3}^{11}

a(12) = 6 \times 177147

a(12) = 1062882

which mean the third option is the correct one.

_____________________________________________

Second question :

As we told in the previous question we have:

a(8) = a(1) \times  {q}^{7}

a(1) = 100 \:  \:  \: and \:  \:  \: q =  \frac{20}{100}  =  \frac{1}{5}  \\

So :

a(8) = 100 \times  ({ \frac{1}{5} })^{7}  \\

a(8) = 100 \times  \frac{1}{78125}  \\

a(8) =  \frac{100}{78125}  \\

a(8) = 0.00128

So the third option is the correct one again .

There u go...

Have a great day ❤

Solve the system of linear equation 8X plus 5Y equals 18 and 6X plus Y equals -2 by using the linear Combination method Emmaus d
Hunter-Best [27]

\text{The solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>

8x + 5y = 18 ------- eqn 1

6x + y = -2 -------- eqn 2

Multiply eqn 2 by -5

-30x -5y = 10 ----- eqn 3

Add eqn 1 and eqn 3 so that y terms gets eliminated

8x + 5y = 18

-30x -5y = 10

( + ) --------------

-22x = 28

Divide both sides by -22

x = \frac{28}{-22}\\\\x = \frac{-14}{11}

Substitute the x value in eqn 1

8(\frac{-14}{11}) + 5y = 18\\\\\frac{-112}{11} + 5y = 18\\\\5y = 18 + \frac{112}{11}\\\\5y = \frac{310}{11}\\\\y = \frac{62}{11}

\text{Thus the solution is } x = \frac{-14}{11} \text{ and } y = \frac{62}{11}

Two students were asked to find the value of a $1000 item after 3 years. The item was depreciating (losing value) at a rate of 4
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

<em>Student 2 is incorrect because he didn't use the formula properly</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function is often used to model natural growing or decaying processes, where the change is proportional to the actual quantity.

An exponential decaying function is expressed as:

C(t)=C_o\cdot(1-r)^t

Where:

C(t) is the actual value of the function at time t

Co is the initial value of C at t=0

r is the decaying rate, expressed in decimal

The initial value of the item is Co=$1000, the rate of decay is r=40%=0.4, and the time is t=3 years.

Substituting into the formula:

C(3)=\$1000\cdot(1-0.4)^3

C(3)=\$1000\cdot0.6^3

C(3)=$216

Student 2 is incorrect because he didn't use the formula properly

6m+23

You have to use distributive property, so 15x2=30 and 2x3m= 6m. You then subtract 30 from 7 and get 23.
