Answer:
1/6feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Point A on the island = -7/3 feet from the sea surface
Point B on the island = -5/2 from the sea surface
The distance between the two points will be Point A - Point B
Distance between the two points = -7/3 - (-5/2)
= -7/3+5/2
Find the LCM
= {2(-7)+3(5)}/6
= -14+15/6
= 1/6
Hence the distance of the two points from the surface of the sea is 1/6feet
A) New branch in:
2nd stage=2
3rd stage=4
4th stage=8
which can be listed as 2,4,8,...
Here,
2nd term/1st term=4/2=2
3rd term/2nd term=8/4=2
Since common ratio is 2, the given sequence is geometric sequence.
b) The required function is,
B(n)=2^(n-1)
{just put n=1,2,3.. here to check if it gives accurate no of branches in each step or not}
where n is stage number
c)Using above function to calculate total no of branches growing out in the 8th stage,
B(8)=2^(8-1)=2^7=128
Volume = 30×26×61 = 47580 inches^3.
