Mike spent $4.55 on snickers bars for him and his road trip buddies. if each snickers bar costs $0.65,how many did mike purchase?

7

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that $4.55 is the same as 455¢, and $0.65 is the same as 65¢. So, Mike bought [tex]\frac{455}{65} = \boxed{7}$ snicker bars.

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
