Given sequences :

–2, –4, –6, –8, –10,...

16, –8, 4, –2, 1 , ......

–15, –18, –21.6, –25.92, –31.104, …

4, 10.5, 17, 23.5, 30, …

625, 125, 25, 5, 1, ….

Let us find the ratios.

–2, –4, –6, –8, –10,...

First sequence is just being decreased by -2. So it would be an Arithmetic sequence.

16, –8, 4, –2, 1 , ......

16/-8 = -2 and 4/-2 = -2.

In second sequence we got common ratio -2. Therefore, it's a geometric sequence.

–15, –18, –21.6, –25.92, –31.104, …

-15/-18 = 0.833

–21.6/ -18 = 0.833.

In second sequence we got common ratio 0.833. Therefore, it's a geometric sequence.

4, 10.5, 17, 23.5, 30, …

10.5/4 ≠ 17/10.5

Ratios are not same. So, it's not a geometric sequence.

625, 125, 25, 5, 1, ….

125/625 = 0.2 = 25/125.

<h3>In fourth sequence we got common ratio 0.2. Therefore, it's a geometric sequence.</h3>

Fernando factored 45y^6 as (9y^3)(5y^3).
marishachu [46]

Answer:

They both factored it correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the one that was factored correctly, we expand the two of them and compare with 45y^6.

Fernando

(9y^3)(5y^3)

= 9 * 5 * y^3 * y^3

= 45y^6

Salma

(3y)(15y^5)

= 3 * 15 * y * y^5

= 45y^6

As we can see, they both factored it correctly.

Adam can earn money recycling aluminium cans .each can weighs 15g and he can get paid 50p per kg . If Adam earns £15 , how many
kvasek [131]

there is 0.015 kilos in 15 grams. if each can weighs 0.015 and he gets paid 50p per KG. 0.015 X 66 will get you 1 kilogram! so you have 66 cans to get 1 kg worth of cans.  so there is 15 dollars and each kg is worth 50p- so 66 cans is = 50p

and there is 2 KG per dollar so 15 X 2 is 30! and then 66 X 30 is 1980!

66 for each KG and 30 represents how many 50p's are needed for 1 dollar!

so that is 1980 cans to get 15 dollars!

In a basketball tournament, team A scored 6 more points than 3 times as many points as team B scored. Team C scored 45 more poin
Sophie [7]
A + B + C = 476
A = 3B + 6
C = B + 45

now its just a matter of subbing..
A + B + C = 476
(3B + 6) + B + (B + 45) = 476...combine like terms
5B + 51 = 476
5B = 476 - 51
5B = 425
B = 425/5
B = 85 <== team B scored 85

A = 3B + 6
A = 3(85) + 6
A = 255 + 6
A = 261 <=== team A scored 261

C = B + 45
C = 85 + 45
C = 130 <=== team C scored 130

You sell sporting goods. Your wages depend on the value of your sales. One week you sold $3,500 in sporting goods, earning $950.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

y = 0.2x + 250

Step-by-step explanation:

let the sales be x and y be earnings

thus,

given

x₁ = $3,500 ; y₁ = $950

and,

x₂ = $2,800 ; y₂ = $810

Now,

the standard line equation is given as:

y = mx + c

here,

m is the slope

c is the constant

also,

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

or

m = \frac{810-950}{\textup{2,800-3,500}}

or

m = 0.2

substituting the value of 'm' in the equation, we get

y = 0.2x + c

now,

substituting the x₁ = $3,500 and y₁ = $950 in the above equation, we get

$950 = 0.2 × $3,500 + c

or

$950 = $700 + c

or

c = $250

hence,

The equation comes out as:

y = 0.2x + 250
