Solve the following 2-step equations for x

4400

step-by-step explanation:

(a) {a₁, a₁r, a₁r², … a₁rⁿ⁻¹, …}

(b) $59 398

step-by-step explanation:

(a) the annual sequence of profits

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

the model for the sequence of profits is {a₁, a₁r, a₁r², … a₁rⁿ⁻¹, …} .

(b) profit after 15 yr

  a₁ = $ 30 000

  r = 1.05

a₁₅ = 30 000 × 1.05¹⁴

a₁₅ = 30 000 × 1.979 93

a₁₅ = $59 398

the profit in year 15 will be $59 398.

we need to see the graph to know but

strong positive is if it is going up from left to right in a straight diagonal line (like this /)

strong negative is the same but from right to left (like this \)

weak negative is the same as strong negative but its more straight line still right to left

and weak positive is the same as strong positive but more a straight line still left to right though.
