Let us check series : -10 /-2 = 5 -50/-10 = 5
so it is a geometric series with a= -2 and r= 5
sum formula for n terms of geometric series = a ( r^n -1 ) /( r-1)
here we find S5 that is n= 5 = -2 ( 5^ 5 - 1) /( 5-1)
= -2 ( 3125 -1) / 4 = -1562
second series is : 1.5/1 = 1.5 2.25/1.5 = 1.5
this is also geometric series but n = 12 a= 1 and r= 1.5
we use same formula
S12 = 1 ( (1.5) ^12 -1) /( 1.5-1) =
128.74 / 0.5 = 257.49
Last is 2/1= 2 4/2 = 2 8/4 = 2 so r = 2 a = 1 and n = 12
we use same formula 1 ( 2^12 - 1) / (2-1)
= 4095
Answers : -1562 , 257.49 , 4095
The ratio is 1:3 because every 3 people 1 is a vegetarian
1, 3, and 5 because you can multiply all these numbers to get 15
Answer: 8.94
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Number of $5 bills = 32
Number of $10 bills = 14
Number of $20 bills = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x number of $5, y number of $10 and z number of $20
The number of $5 bills exceeds twice the number of $10 bills by 4.
Therefore, x = 2y + 4
The number of $20 bills is 6 fewer than the number of $10 bills.
Therefore, z = y - 6
A wallet contains $460 in $5, $10, and $20 bills.
Therefore,
5x + 10y + 20z = 460
Substitute x and y into equation
5(2y+4) + 10y + 20(y-6) = 460
10y + 20 + 10y + 20y - 120 = 460
40y - 100 = 460
40y = 460 + 100
40y = 560
y = 14
- Put the value of y into x = 2y + 4 and solve for x
x = 2(14) + 4
x = 32
- Put the value of y into z = y - 6 and solve for z
z = 14 - 6
z = 8
Hence, the each type of bills,
Number of $5 bills = 32
Number of $10 bills = 14
Number of $20 bills = 8
