Ratio and proportion

height:shadow=1.5:2

for the building, shadow=24

1.5:2=h:24
1.5/2=h/24
multiply both sides by 24
36/2=h
18=h
the building is 18 meters

A sequence is constructed according to the following rule: its first term is 7, and each next term is one more than the sum of t
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the described rule, we have

a_1=7\\ \\a_1^2=7^2=49\Rightarrow a_2=4+9+1=14\\ \\a_2^2=14^2=196\Rightarrow a_3=1+9+6+1=17\\ \\a_3^2=17^2=289\Rightarrow a_4=2+8+9+1=20\\ \\a_4^2=20^2=400\Rightarrow a_5=4+0+0+1=5\\ \\a_5^2=5^2=25\Rightarrow a_6=2+5+1=8\\ \\a_6^2=8^2=64\Rightarrow a_7=6+4+1=11\\ \\a_7^2=11^2=121\Rightarrow a_8=1+2+1+1=5\\ \\\text{and so on...}

We can see the pattern

a_5=a_8=a_{11}=a_{14}=...=5\\ \\a_6=a_9=a_{12}=a_{15}=...=8\\ \\a_7=a_{10}=a_{13}=a_{16}=...=11

In other words, for all k\ge 2

a_{3k-1}=5\\ \\a_{3k}=8\\ \\a_{3k+1}=11

Now,

a_{2018}=a_{3\cdot 673-1}=5

Which expression is NOT equivalent to −3/8·(−4+1/2)?<br><br><br> Drag this expression to the box.
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

Original expression

                                 -3/8 (-4 + 1/2)

First option    -3/8 (-4)  + (3/8)(1/2)       This option is not equivalent because

                                                              they forgot the negative sign of the

                                                              second term.

Second option (-3/8)(-4) + (-3/8)(1/2)    This option is equivalent to the

                                                               original. Distributive property

Third option    (-3/2)(-3 1/2)                 This option is equivalent to the original

Fourth option  (-3/8)(-3) + (-3/8)(-1/2)  This option is equivalent to the original
