A store buys purses for $24.50 and then marks them up 25%. The store then discounts any purses that do not sell in the first month by 10%. Find the sales price of the purse that do not sell in the first month

Given:

The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]

[tex]a_1=-3[/tex]

To find:

The explicit formula of the given geometric sequence.

Solution:

We know that, first term of geometric sequence is [tex]a_1=-3[/tex].

Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\times r[/tex]      ...(i)

where, r is common ratio.

We have,

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]    ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]

Putting [tex]a_1=-3[/tex] and [tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex], we get

[tex]a_n=-3\left(\dfrac{1}{8}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa and Frank type at the same rate.

They both type 1 page every six minutes.

Lisa types 6 pages every 36 minutes, and if we divide the minutes by the pages, we get

[tex]\frac{36}{6} = 6[/tex]

And Frank types 5 pages ever 30 minutes, when we divide we get

[tex]\frac{30}{5} = 6[/tex]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation simplifies down to -4m - 2

Answer A and B also simplify down to -4m -2, and therefor are equivalent

A: -2(4m + 1) + 4m

-8m - 2 + 4m

-4m - 2

B: 2(2m - 1) - 8m

4m - 2 - 8m

-4m - 2

Answer:

The probability that the 3rd defective mirror is the 10th mirror examined = 0.0088

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Probability of manufacturing a defective mirror = 0.075

To find the probability that the 3rd defective mirror is the 10th mirror examined:

Let X be the random variable that follows a negative Binomial expression.

Then;

[tex]X \sim -ve \ Bin (k = 3 , p = 0.075)\\ \\ P(X=x)= \bigg (^{x-1}_{k-1}\bigg)\times P^k\times (1-P)^{x-k}[/tex]

[tex]= \bigg (^{10-1}_{3-1}\bigg)\times 0.075^3\times (1-0.075)^{10-3}[/tex]

[tex]= \bigg (^9_2\bigg)\times 0.075^3\times (1-0.075)^{7}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{9!}{2!(9-2)!}\times 0.075^3\times (0.925)^{7}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{9*8*7!}{2!(7)!}\times 0.075^3\times (0.925)^{7}[/tex]

= 0.0087999

≅ 0.0088

- 6 (3)=-18

when you multiply  6 x 3. it would be 18 using multiplication and then a positive and a negative equals a negative so then a the 18 would become - 18.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:24 is 34miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1st

A pound is defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms.

so 50 x 0.45359237 = 22.679619 Kilograms

2. 55km to miles = 34.16

for an approximate result, divide the length value by 1.609

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute every part of the equation where x appears with the value of x, which is -2

f(-2)=-2-3

f(-2)=-5

So, f(x)=-5

Answer:

Christina has 30 quarters and 20 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a quarter is worth 0.25 dollars and a dime is worth 0.10 dollars, if Christina has 50 coins and these add up to a total of $ 9.50, to determine the number of quarters and dimes that she has in her possession, the following calculation must be carried out, taking into account that the difference between a quarter and a dime is 0.15 dollars:

50 x 0.25 = 12.5

12.5 - 9.5 = 3

Thus, the difference between the value that Christina has and the value that she would have if all of her coins were quarters is 3 dollars. Thus, since 0.15 x 20 equals 3, of the 50 coins Christina has, 30 are quarters and 20 are dimes.

This is confirmed through the following equation:

30 x 0.25 + 20 x 0.1 = X

7.5 + 2 = X

9.5 = X

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 11x + 30 = (x - 6)(x - 5)

x^2 - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)

x^2 + 3x - 40 = (x + 8)(x - 5)

x - 2 = x - 2

Invert and multiply the right fraction.

(x - 6)(x - 5)           (x - 2)

===========   x   =======

(x - 2)(x + 2)          (x + 8)(x - 5)

x - 5 on the top cancels with x - 5 on the bottom

x - 2 on the top  cancels with x - 2 on the bottom left

So what's left?

(x - 6)

===============

(x + 2)(x + 8)

This is likely the answer.

Answer:

She has to work for 60hours in order to earn $720.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of money earned in 1hour=36÷3

                                                        =12$

Total time required=720÷12

                               =60hours

r = 48

r/6 = 8 // - 8

r/6-8 = 0

1/6*r-8 = 0 // + 8

1/6*r = 8 // : 1/6

r = 8/1/6

r = 48

48/6

48 ÷ 6

=

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

*In this question, the 6 does not matter*

If 40/80 books are fiction, and if you simplify that fraction, you get 1/2.

Percentages are just fancy fractions and decimals. 50% means 1/2.

Thus, the answer is 50%

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval is   [tex] 165.776  <  \mu <  180.224  [/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The sample size is  n  = 100

     The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 173 \ days[/tex]

      The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 28 \ days[/tex]  

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58 [/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

      [tex]E = 2.58  *  \frac{28 }{\sqrt{100} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 7.224 [/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>     [tex] 173 -7.224  <  \mu < 173 + 7.224  [/tex]    

=>     [tex] 165.776  <  \mu < 180.224  [/tex]  

Answer:

3.27*10^22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 9.6x10^85/3x10^63, we are to write it on scientific notation as shown:

9.6x10^85/3x10^63

= (9.8/3) * (10^85/10^63)

= (9.8/3)  * 10^{85-63}

= (9.8/3) *10^22

= 3.27 *10^22

Hence the expression in scientific notation is  3.27*10^22
