Answer:

25.3 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

We can multiply the whole by the percentage to find the part. Since 15.9% is equal to 0.159, the weight of fat is 159*0.159 = 25.281. Round this to the nearest tenth, and we get 25.3 pounds.

algol13

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • a[1] = 3
  • a[n] = a[n-1] -7

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive formula consists of two parts:

  • initialization (rule for the first term(s))
  • rule for the next term

When we look at the differences between terms in the sequence 3, -4, -11, ..., we find that they are constant at -7. That is each term can be found from the previous one by subtracting 7. This is our recursive rule. The first term is obviously 3, so the recursive formula is ...

  a[1] = 3

  a[n] = a[n-1] -7

The perimeter of this isosceles triangle is 22 cm. If one side is 6 cm, what are the possible lengths of the other two sides? Pa
3241004551 [841]
We know that

<span>the isosceles triangle has two equal sides
</span>
<span>let's analyze two cases
</span>
first case
perimeter=22 cm
<span>let's suppose that the known side of 6 cm is one of the two equal sides
</span>perimeter=6+6+x
22=6+6+x-----> x=22-12----> x=10 cm

answer first case
<span>the possible lengths of the other two sides are
</span>6 cm 
10 cm

second case
let's suppose that the known side of 6 cm is the side that is not equal
perimeter=22 cm
perimeter=6+x+x
22=6+x+x----> 2x=22-6----> 2x=16-----> x=8 cm


answer second case
the possible lengths of the other two sides are
8 cm 
8 cm

What is the slope intercept from of the equation of the line that that passes through the points (-3, 2) and (1, 5)
viva [34]

The slope-intercept form of a line:

y=mx+b\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\to slope\\\\b\to y-intercept

We have:

(-3,\ 2)\to x_1=-3,\ y_1=2\\(1,\ 5)\to x_2=1,\ y_2=5

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{5-2}{1-(-3)}=\dfrac{3}{4}

y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+b

Put the values of coordinates of the point (1, 5) to the equation of a line:

5=\dfrac{3}{4}(1)+b\\\\5=\dfrac{3}{4}+b\qquad|-\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\b=4\dfrac{1}{4}

Answer: y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+4\dfrac{1}{4}
