The next 4 terms are 375, 75, 15 and 3

<h3>How to determine the next 4 terms?</h3>

The sequence is given as:

234375, 46875, 9375, 1875...

Notice that the current term of the sequence is 1/5 of the previous term.

So, the next four terms are:

Next 1 = 1/5 * 1875 = 375

Next 2 = 1/5 * 375 = 75

Next 3 = 1/5 * 75 = 15

Next 4 = 1/5 * 15 = 3

Hence, the next 4 terms are 375, 75, 15 and 3

Answer:

nearest hundredth 8.944

Step-by-step explanation:

d = √((x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)2)

Step by step procedure:

Find the difference between coordinates:

(x2-x1) = (-9 - -1) = -8

(y2-y1) = (2 - -2) = 4

Square the results and sum them up:

(-8)2 + (4)2 = 64 + 16 = 80

Now Find the square root and that's your result:

Exact solution: √80 = 4√5

Approximate solution: 8.944

A rectangle is fenced off for a robot competition. The dimensions of the competition area are 35 feet by 25 feet. To help track

Answer:

The approximate speed of the robot during the 5 seconds is:

<u>6 ft/s</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the speed of the robot, you must begin with the positions, the first position (3, 18) and the second position (31, 6), you can see, in the height it moved from 3 to 31, it means 28 feet, in the width it moves from 18 to 6, it means 12 feet, with these data you can construct a triangle where you have the opposite leg and adjacent leg, now you must calculate the hypotenuse, because it is the linear path from the first position to the second position that the robot took, for this, you can use the Pythagoras theorem:
