Might have to experiment a bit to choose the right answer.
In A, the first term is 456 and the common difference is 10. Each time we have a new term, the next one is the same except that 10 is added.
Suppose n were 1000. Then we'd have 456 + (1000)(10) = 10456
In B, the first term is 5 and the common ratio is 3. From 5 we get 15 by mult. 5 by 3. Similarly, from 135 we get 405 by mult. 135 by 3. This is a geom. series with first term 5 and common ratio 3. a_n = a_0*(3)^(n-1).
So if n were to reach 1000, the 1000th term would be 5*3^999, which is a very large number, certainly more than the 10456 you'd reach in A, above.
Can you now examine C and D in the same manner, and then choose the greatest final value? Safe to continue using n = 1000.
Add the exponents so 3^3 or 27
The equation of a circle uses the following formula:
The center of the circle is given by (h,k). Therefore, h = -2, and k = -5. r = 1, so we can find the equation from the information given to us.
Plug in your values.
The equation of this circle is as follows:
4h+3=The Pay of Shea
3.5h +6= The pay of Kelly
4h+3=3.5h+6
-3 -3
4h=3.5h+3
-3.5h
.5h=3
*2 *2
h=?
Then stick "h" into one of the original equations and solve for someones pay to get "p"
3.5(h)+6=p OR 4(h)+3 =p
