Answer:

Solution

To solve the problem first we have simplify the improper fraction.

⇒ 33/4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= (4 × 3 + 3) /4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= 15/4 ÷ 4 pounds.

= 15/4 × 1/4 pounds.

= 15/16 pounds.

Now we know that, 1 pound = 16 ounces.

Therefore, 15/16 pounds .

= 15/16 × 16 ounces.

= 15/1

= 15

= 15 ounces.

Answer: 15 ounces.

Mario is walking away from a motion detector at a rate of 1.5 feet per second. He started recording his distance from the motion
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial distance of Mario from motion detector = 2 ft

Speed of Mario = 1.5 ft/sec

Total distance of Mario from motion detector = 11 ft

Total distance moved by Mario while walking at the rate of 1.5 ft/sec = 11 - 2 = 9 ft

Given that:

Distance = 9 ft

Speed = 1.5 ft/sec

<em>Formula:</em>

Distance = Speed \times Time

\Rightarrow 9 =1.5 \times Time\\\Rightarrow Time = \dfrac{9}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow Time = \bold{6\ sec}

So, at <em>6 seconds</em>, Mario will be 11 ft from the motion detector.

Find the first four terms of the sequence an = 4n-6
natulia [17]

Answer:

The first four terms of the sequence are-6, -2, 2 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is a_n=4n-6

In order to find the first four term of the sequence we put n =0, 1, 2 and 3.

For n =0

a_0=4(0)-6=-6

For n =1

a_1=4(1)-6=-2

For n =2

a_2=4(2)-6=2

For n =3

a_3=4(3)-6=6

Therefore, the first four terms of the sequence are

-6, -2, 2 and 6
