Answer:

The amount of fabric she needs is 3/4 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of fabric needed, we need to subtract the sum of what she has at school and at home from what she needs.

What she has can be calculated by adding 3 1/4 + 1 1/2

This would be easier in terms of decimals.

3 1/4 = 3.25 (1/4 = 0.25)

while 1 1/2 = 1.5(1/2 = 0.5)

Adding both, we have 3.25 + 1.5 = 4.75 yards

What is needed is 5 1/2 yards = 5.5 yards

What is needed more is thus 5.5 yards - 4.75 yards = 0.75 yards

Mathematically 0.75 in decimals = 3/4 in fraction form

Several terms of a sequence {an}n=1 infinity are given. A. Find the next two terms of the sequence. B. Find a recurrence relatio
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

A)\frac{1}{1024},\frac{1}{4096}

B) \left\{\begin{matrix}a(1)=1 & \\ a(n)=a(n-1)*\frac{1}{4} &\:for\:n=1,2,3,4,... \end{matrix}\right.

C) \\a_{n}=nq^{n-1} \:for\:n=1,2,3,4,...

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Incomplete question. So completing the several terms:\left \{a_{n}\right \}_{n=1}^{\infty}=\left \{ 1,\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{16},\frac{1}{64},\frac{1}{256},... \right \}

We can realize this a Geometric sequence, with the ratio equal to:

q=\frac{1}{4}

A) To find the next two terms of this sequence, simply follow multiplying the 5th term by the ratio (q):

\frac{1}{256}*\mathbf{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{1}{1024}\\\\\frac{1}{1024}*\mathbf{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{1}{4096}\\\\\left \{ 1,\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{16},\frac{1}{64},\frac{1}{256},\mathbf{\frac{1}{1024},\frac{1}{4096}}\right \}

B) To find a recurrence a relation, is to write it a function based on the last value. So that, the function relates to the last value.

\left\{\begin{matrix}a(1)=1 & \\ a(n)=a(n-1)*\frac{1}{4} &\:for\:n=1,2,3,4,... \end{matrix}\right.

C) The explicit formula, is one valid for any value since we have the first one to find any term of the Geometric Sequence, therefore:

\\a_{n}=nq^{n-1} \:for\:n=1,2,3,4,...

7) A container is 1/3 full of water and 1/4 full of oil. What fraction of the container is empưy?​
storchak [24]

Answer:

Empty = \frac{5}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Water = \frac{1}{3}

Oil = \frac{1}{4}

Required

The fraction that is empty

The constituent of the water can be represented as:

Water + Oil + Empty = 1

Make Empty the subject

Empty = 1 - Water - Oil

Substitute values for Water and Oil

Empty = 1 - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{4}

Take LCM

Empty = \frac{12 - 4 - 3}{12}

Empty = \frac{5}{12}
