To find the height of the cactus, make a ratio.
58 inches divided by 4 feet equals x inches divided by 8 feet.
58/4 = x/8
14.5 = x/8
116 = x
The height of the cactus is 116 inches.
Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
We can start by looking at it as a ratio, so 4 divided by 20 and 4/20 = 0.2, so that would be 20% viewing 1=100%.
Another way is
20 here is 100%, and for 20 to equal 100, we have to multiply it by 5. To balance it out, multiply the top by 5 as well, and 4 * 5 =20. Therefore, 4/20 = 20%
Answer: 1.25 times as far
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem requires you to find something called the unit rate.
Getting the unit rate for Car A is very simple, and can be found to be 25mi/gal.
To find the unit rate for Car B, simply look at the second row. Because the car can go 60 miles on 3 gallons of gas, divide both these numbers by 3 to get 20mi/gal.
Then, simply multiply both of these numbers by 11 to get 25 * 11 = 275, and 20 * 11 = 220.
Then, by doing 275/220, you get your answer: 1.25.
Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate.
9/27, 12/27, 16/27
So this is a geometric sequence as each term is 4/3 the previous term.
Since the common ration is greater than one the sum of the series diverges, it does not exist. (The sum just keeps getting larger and larger)
For a geometric series to have a sum r^2<1
So that the normal sum....
s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r) becomes if r^2<1
s=a/(1-r)
