Answer:
= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of a geometric sequence is
= a
where a is the first term and r the common ratio
Here a = 6 and r = 30 ÷ 6 = 5, thus
= 6
Your answer would be 36,000 because he gets 3000 every month and every month for a year he would get your answer which would be 3000×12 which equals 36,000
<span>A parallelogram is a 4-sided shape where opposites sides are parallel. A rectangle is a special case of a parallelogram. All rectangles are parallelograms.
But a rectangle is a shape where opposites sides are parallel *and* all the corners are 90 degree angles. So you can't say that all parallelograms would be rectangles. Some parallelograms would be rectangles, but not all.
Rectangles are a subset of the shapes called parallelograms. But parallelograms are *not* a subset of the shapes called rectangles.
It's similar to saying all cars are vehicles. But you can't say that all vehicles are cars. </span>
ASSUMING This is a straight line so we gotta the formula for a straight line which is y=mx+b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept.
First, we know this line passes through (5,8) and (9,2) we can use these for finding the equations. When we know two points, we use this formula:
y-y=m(x-x)
The first y is 8 and the second one is 2
The first x is 5 and the second one is 9
Plug it in:
8-2=m(5-9)
6=m(-4)
6/-4=m <— simplify this
m= -3/2
*NOTE: another way to find m is by calculating it (y-y)/(x-x)
Now we know m, we have to find b.
All you gotta do is plug everything you know back into the equation y=mx+b
y=mx+b
y=-3/2x+b <— now plug in a point we know(x,y)
8=-3/2(5)+b
8=-15/2+b
8-(-15/2)=b
b=8+15/2
b=16/2+15/2
b=31/2 (now you can write be as a fraction or a decimal in your equation, depending on what your teacher told you to use)
*NOTE: it is best to use fractions instead of decimals as it is more accurate sometimes.
Now we know all the variables that need to be known, we just need to rewrite the formula of the equation so the teacher can see.
m=-3/2
b=31/2
We don’t need to plug in x or y since it could have different values (since a straight line has MANY co-ordinates)
SO OUR EQUATION IS=
y=(-3/2)x+31/2
Hope you understand this, feel free to ask me anything!
THE CORRECT ANSWER IS:
Mary sells 43 units; Jay sells 51 units; Abby sells 54 units
HOPE THIS HELPFUL. :)
