So, Seth has 18 more sweets than Frank, yet theres only 3 number difference in the ratio, 4:5:7   (4:5) 3 number difference, 18/3= 6

add the ratios = 4+5+7= 16
1 number = 6 so 
4x6= 24
5x6=30
7x6=42

Frank gets 24 sweets
Mary gets 30 sweets
Seth gets 42 sweets

The total number of sweets they shared is 24+30+42= 96
The share 96 sweets altogether. 

The check your answer; do 42-24= 18

Therefore, now we know that the difference between Seth and Frank's amount of sweets is 18.

Therefore, this is correct.

Each number in the ratio 4:5:7 is worth 6 sweets. add 4,5, and 7 to get 16 then multiply it by 6 to get 96 sweets.

The first four terms of an arithmetic sequence are -11,-5,1,7. what is the equation for an
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

y = 6x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is a linear function. This means it steadily increases or decreases through addition/subtraction by a constant amount. Here the sequence grows by adding 6 each time.

-11 + 6 = -5

-5 + 6 = 1

1 + 6 = 7

etc....

Since this is linear, its equation has the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope is m = 6 and b = -11.

y = 6x - 11

bazaltina [42]
\bf \qquad \textit{Simple Interest Earned}\\\\
I = Prt\qquad 
\begin{cases}
I=\textit{interest earned}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$690.65\\
r=rate\to 7.3\%\to \frac{7.3}{100}\to &0.073\\
t=years\to &\frac{15+31+30+6}{365}
\end{cases}

the penalty he'll incurred into, since July 6 is after the deadline of April 15, is I = Prt

now "t" is in years, how many days after April 15 to July 6? well, 15 + 31 + 30 +6, to convert to years, divide by 365

Which algebraic expression is a polynomial with a degree of 3?
Irina18 [472]

Option a: 4x^{3} -\frac{2}{x}

Option b: 2y^{3} +5y^{2} -5y

Option c: 3y^{3} -\sqrt{4y}

Explanation:

The highest degree of a polynomial is the largest exponent of that variable.

Now, we shall determine the polynomial with degree 3.

Option a: 4x^{3} -\frac{2}{x}

From the expression 4x^{3} -\frac{2}{x}, the highest degree of the polynomial is 3.

Hence, 4x^{3} -\frac{2}{x} is a polynomial with a degree of 3.

Hence, Option a is the correct answer.

Option b: 2y^{3} +5y^{2} -5y

From the expression 2y^{3} +5y^{2} -5y, the highest degree of the polynomial is 3.

Hence, 2y^{3} +5y^{2} -5y is a polynomial with a degree of 3.

Hence, Option b is the correct answer.

Option c: 3y^{3} -\sqrt{4y}

From the expression 3y^{3} -\sqrt{4y}, the highest degree of the polynomial is 3.

Hence, 3y^{3} -\sqrt{4y} is a polynomial with a degree of 3.

Hence, Option c is the correct answer.

Option d: -xy\sqrt{6}

From the expression -xy\sqrt{6}, the highest degree of the polynomial is 1.

Hence, -xy\sqrt{6} is a polynomial with degree 1.

Hence, Option d is not the correct answer.
