Find the sum of the n terms using the formula a(1-r^n)/1-r 1,3/2,9/4,27/8,81/16, …

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]S_5=\frac{211}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily see that the common ratio is [tex]r=\frac{3}{2}[/tex] and we are to find the first [tex]n=5[/tex] terms:

[tex]\displaystyle S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\S_5=\frac{1(1-(\frac{3}{2})^5)}{1-\frac{3}{2}}\\\\S_5=\frac{1-\frac{243}{32}}{-\frac{1}{2}}\\ \\S_5=\frac{-\frac{211}{32}}{-\frac{1}{2}}\\ \\S_5=\frac{422}{32}\\\\S_5=\frac{211}{16}[/tex]

You just drove your car 450 miles and used 50 gallons of gas. You know that the gas tank on your car holds 16 1/2 gallons of gas.
What is the most number of miles you can drive on one tank of gas?

Answers

Answer: 148.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

450/50 gals= 9 miles can be driven for every 1 gallon.

Since we now know that our car uses 1 gallon of gas for every 9 miles we drive, we can now multiply the 9 miles with the 16 1/2= 16.5. So 16.5x9=148.5.

With our 16 1/2 gas tank, we can travel at least 148.5 miles before running out of gas.

Draw the graph of the equation 2x - y = 10.​

Answers

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of a linear equation can be drawn using any of several methods. Here, we are given the equation in standard form. We notice that the variable coefficients are both divisors of the constant, which means the x- and y-intercepts will be integer values. It will be convenient to draw the graph using those points.

__

The x-intercept is the x-value when y = 0.

  2x -0 = 10

  x = 10/2 = 5 . . . . . . (5, 0) is a point on the line

__

The y-intercept is the y-value when x = 0.

  0 -y = 10

  y = -10 . . . . . . . (0, -10) is a point on the line

__

The graph can be drawn by plotting these points and drawing the line through them. This is shown in the attachment.

What are some key features of sequence and series graphs?

Answers

Answer:

The key features that are unique to the graphs of sequences and series are that they are discrete.

That means that the graph is not a continuous line or curve that joins all the points. On the contrary, the graph is a set of separated dots, because the values are valid only for specific points.

What is the meaning of cost?

The average cost of a college education has gone up dramatically.

Consider a ticket cost of 200rs.

For 100 people in a show,

Cost = 200 × 100

Can you please help me with number 5 asap? Thank you! : )

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the manufacturing costs are defined by

m(x) = 25x + 150

the selling revenue is defined by

s(x) = 50 + 30x = 30x + 50

clearly, the selling amount is bigger than the manufacturing amount (also supported by the fact that 30x > 25x). otherwise the company is going bankrupt in no time.

so,

a)

the profit is (as usual) revenue minus manufacturing :

p(x) = 30x + 50 - 25x - 150 = 5x - 100

b)

x = 150

p(150) = 5×150 - 100 = 750 - 100 = $650

since the result is positive, yes, they are making a profit. and it is $650.

Answer:

5.a) p = 5x - 100

b)p = $650

Step-by-step explanation:

5.a)

Revenue minus cost:

p - Profit

p - Profitc - Cost

p - Profitc - Cost - revenue

p = r - c

p = (30x + 50) - (25x + 150)

p = 5x - 100

b) The company will make profit.

p = 5x - 100

p = 5(150) - 100

p = 750 - 100

p = $650

or

p = (30×150 + 50) - (25 × 150 + 150)

p = $650

the mean cost per cookie is $0.73, what is the cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie?
O $0.54
O $0.67
O $0.79
O $0.84

Answers

The correct answer is $0.54

The cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie is A; $0.54.

What are mean?

The mean is the average value which can be calculated by dividing the sum of observations by the number of observations

Mean = Sum of observations/the number of observations

WE know that Chocolate chip = $0.73

Double chocolate = $0.82

Oatmeal raisin = $0.70

Sugar = X

Butter pecan = $0.86

We need to find the  cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie.

So, Mean = $0.73

Mean = 0.73 + 0.82 + 0.70+ X + 0.86 / 5

0.73 (5) =0.73 + 0.82 + 0.70+ X + 0.86

x = 0.54

Therefore, The cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie is A; $0.54.

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

x° and (x/5)° are complementary angles.

-> x° = 90° * 5/6

-> x° = 75°

Answer:

x = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

b. Write an expression for the problem Erica will solve.

c. Solve the problem.

d. What is Erica's score for this round?

Answers

Answer:

  a.  2, 3, 6

  b.  a/b × c = 1

  c.  a = 2, b = 6, c = 3  or  a = 3, b = 6, c = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, Erica wants to multiply a fraction by a whole number to get a result of 1. That means the fraction is the multiplicative inverse of the whole number.

__

a.

There is only one set of three unique numbers among those given such that one of them is a composite number with the other two as factors. Erica must choose 2, 3, and 6.

__

b.

If the three numbers are represented by a, b, c, Erica wants ...

  a/b × c = 1

__

c.

Multiplying the equation by b gives ...

  ac = b

Among the numbers 1–6, only 2×3 = 6 will satisfy this equation. Erica can choose either of ...

  a = 2, b = 6, c = 3   ⇒   (2/6)×3 = 1

  a = 3, b = 6, c = 2   ⇒   (3/6)×2 = 1
