During a hot summer week, Mr. Singh sold 60 watermelons. On Monday, he sold he sold half the number of watermelons he sold on Monday. On Thursday, Mr. Singh sold 18
watermelons. On Tuesday, he sold twice as many watermelons than Monday. On Wednesday,
watermelons. On Friday, he sold four more than twice the amount he sold on Monday and
Tuesday combined. How many watermelons did he sell on Friday?

Help please

the answer is 0.000652422

but if you ment to ask what is 6131 divided by 4, it is 1532.75.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

part a. the differences are decreasing, so we know the sequence is not arithmetic. the ratios are constant (=3/4), so we know the sequence is geometric.

part b. from part a, we know the common ratio is 3/4, so each term is 3/4 of the one before. the initial term is the number of gallons at h=1.

g[h] = (3/4)·g[h-1]

g[1] = 384 . . . . initial value required for a recursive definition

part c. the general formula for a geometric sequence is

a[n] = a[1]·r^(n-1)

we have a[1] = 384, r = 3/4, and the term number given by h. the formula that follows is

g[h] = 384·(3/4)^(h-1)

part d. filling in the value and doing the arithmetic, we have

g[12] = 384·(3/4)^11 ≈ 384·0.042235136 ≈ 16.2183 . . gallons

part e. each gallon is 4 quarts, so

16.2183 gal × 4 qt/gal = 64.8732 qt
