two years ago the water in a local reservoir fell 8 3/4 feet then it rose 4 3/5 how much did it change

2 answers:

8 0

To find the change, we need to subtract.

8 3/4 - 4 3/5

We need a common denominator to find the answer.

3*5/4*5 = 15/20

8 15/20

3*4/5*4 = 12/20

4 12/20

Now we can properly subtract

8-4=4

15-12
-------- =
20

3/20

Now we have our final answer: 4 3/20

The change : 4 3/20

Hey guys please help!!

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = - $\frac{1}{4}$ x + $\frac{1}{4}$

y = - $\frac{1}{4}$ x + $\frac{1}{4}$ ....... (1)

(1) × 4

4y = - x + 1

x = - 4y + 1

y = - 4x + 1

f(x) = - 4x + 1

∴ f(x) and g(x) are inverses

Find the sum of this infinite geometric series where a1=0.3 and r=0.55

Lisa [10]

Hello, Marymack!

We know that in a geometric sequence defined by $\mathsf{a_1}$ and $\mathsf{r}$ , the sum can be calculated the following way:

$\mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{a_1}{1-r}}\\ \\ \\ \\ \mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{0.3}{1-0.55}}\\ \\ \\ \mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{0.3}{0.45}}\\ \\ \\ \boxed{\mathsf{S_n = \dfrac{2}{3}=0.666...}}$
