A large company put out an advertisement in a magazine for a job opening. The firstday the magazine was published the company got 180 responses, but the responses
were declining by 10% each day. Assuming the pattern continued, how many total
responses would the company get over the course of the first 13 days after the
magazine was published, to the nearest whole number?

HELP PLEAS 50 POINTS!!’

51 response

Step-by-step explanation:

where

a_n= a(r)^n-1

a_n> term of the sequence

r ---> is the common ratio

a ---> the first term of the sequence

n___ number of terms

substitute

For n=13

a= 180

r= 100-10=90 90/100= 0.90

a_n= 180(0.90)^13-1

an = 180((0.90)^12

an = 180(0.2824)= 50.83 = 51 (approximately)

therefore, there will be 51 response

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
