Jovan needs to buy a package of ham for $5, a package of cheese for $3, and a loaf of bread for $4 to make lunch. jovan has a coupon that gives him x percent off on a package of cheese. he has a second coupon that gives him y percent off on a loaf of bread. he has a third coupon that gives him z percent off on his total purchase. jovan cannot combine the coupon for the total purchase with the other two coupons. these expressions give both possibilities for the total cost of jovan's purchase after the coupons are applied. the variables represent percentages as decimals. (1−x)3+(1−y)4+5 (1−z)(3+4+5) which part of the expression represents the price of the ham, the cheese, and the bread before the total discount is applied? a. 3 + 4 + 5 b. (1−z) c. (1−x) d. 4(1−y)

I’m pretty sure it’s A.

3 would represent the price of the cheese, 4 would represent the price of the loaf of bread and 5 would represent the ham

Hope this helps

(a) common ratio in the given sequence is, 3

(b) push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio(r)

(a)

given the sequence: 6 , 18 , 54 , 162 ,

this sequence is geometric sequence where each term is 3 times the previous term.

therefore,

common ratio(r) = 3.

(b)

a formula for nth term of geometric sequence is given by;

,   where r is the common ratio between the successive terms and is the first term,

to find how many push ups will kendall do on the 20th week.

here. n = 20th term.

in the given sequence first term

then;

simplify:

therefore, push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

first, let's see what the pattern is.

58 - x = 47

46 - x = 36

x = 9

so this means that the term after 25 is 25 - 9:

the next term in the sequence is 16.
