A pizza has a diameter of 14 inches what is the approximate circumference
Savatey [412]
To find the circumference of a circle you can use either of these equations
3.14 X Diameter or 2 X 3.14 X Radius. But in this case we will use the first one. So 3.14 X 14 = 47.6 so the circumference of this circle would be 47.6 inches.

Which one of these formulas describes the following sequence?<br><br> 1,5,12,22,35
kati45 [8]

We can find a formula for nth term of the given sequence as follows:

1, 5, 12, 22, 35

The 1st differences between terms:

4, 7, 10, 13

The 2nd differences :

3, 3, 3

Since it takes two rounds of differences to arrive at a constant difference between terms, the nth term will be a 2nd degree polynomial of the form: a n^2 + b n + c, where c is a constant. The coefficients a, b, and the constant c can be found.

We can form the following 3 equations with 3 unknowns a, b, c:

1 = a\cdot1^2 + b\cdot1 + c\\5 = \cdot2^2 + b\cdot2 + c\\12 = a\cdot3^2 + b\cdot3 + c

Solving for a, b, c, we get:

a = 3/2, b = -1/2, c = 0

Therefore, the nth term of the given sequence is:

\boxed{ a_n = \dfrac{3}{2}n^2- \dfrac{1}{2} n}

Rent a truck charges a daily rental of 39$ plus 0.16$ per mile. a competing agency, ace truck rentals, charges 25$ a day plus 0.
charle [14.2K]
39 + 0.16m = 25 + 0.24m
39 - 25 = 0.24m - 0.16m
14 = 0.08m
14 / 0.08 = m
175 = m <=== they will cost the same at 175 miles

39 + 0.16(175) = 39 + 28 = $ 67
25 + 0.24(175) = 25 + 42 = $ 67
they will both cost $ 67 <=====

37 minutes

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Lena has 20 dollars. 20 - 12.23 = 7.77

Lena has $7.77 dollars left.

We divide this by .21 to see how many minutes her call was.

7.77 ÷ .21 = 37
