Jared bought a new amplifier for his guitar by borrowing the money from his mom. The amplifier cost $235. Jared is paying his mom back $18 each week. If Jared still owes his mom $73, how many weeks has he been paying her back?

9 weeks

235 -73=162 (this is the amount he paid)

162/18=9 (he has been paying his mom for 9 weeks)

9 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

235-73 = 162 (how much he has paid her thus far)

162/18 (how many times he payed her) = 9

if you are saying purchasing 3 social media ads and one newspaper ad counts as one purchase then there are:

6 purchases

if you are asking how many of each then:

18 social media ads

6 newspaper ads

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
