12% is the percent decrease
95,920 is 88% of 109,000.
x/100 = 95,920/109,000
95,920 x 100 = 9,592,000
9,592,000 / 109,000 = 88
100 - 88 = 12
Since it is 88% of it, it decreased by 12%
Answer:
The first term of the geometric series is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating the first term of a geometric series, given the common ratio, and the sum of the first 8 terms.
Mathematically, the sum of terms in a geometric series can be calculated as;
S = a(r^n-1)/( r-1)
where a is the first term that we are looking for
r is the common ratio which is 3 according to the question
n is the number of terms which is 8
S is the sum of the number of terms which is 3280 according to the question
Plugging these values, we have
3280 = a(3^8 -1)/(3-1)
3280 = a( 6561-1)/2
3280 = a(6560)/2
3280 = 3280a
a = 3280/3280
a = 1

If you understand what is linear pair, you can see the same in triangle also. A linear pair is a pair of adjacent, supplementary angles. Adjacentmeans next to each other, and supplementary means that the measures of the two angles add up to equal 180 degrees.
