Answer:
Yes the trainer was successful in an attempt for lucky to gain weight.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lucky was a weak and thin body shaped person who came to a gym trainer to gain weight. The trainer started to guide Lucky that he has to go for supplements and heavy weight lifting in order to gain weight. After 3 month's of hard work lucky has finally gained weight from 55 kg to 88 kgs.
First, convert 3 into a fraction with denominator 8.
(3 pizzas)(8/8 pizzas)=24/8 pizzas
Then, divide 24/8 pizzas by 2/8 pizzas per 1 person.
(24/8 pizzas)(2/8 pizzas/person)
Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal:
(24/8)/(2/8)=(24/8)×(8/2) the 8s cancel and you are left with 24/2=12
3 pizzas will feed 12 people.
5x – 1 = 3x – 15
Subtraction Property of Equality (Subtract 3x from both sides)
2x - 1 = -15
Addition Property of Equality (Add 1 to both sides)
2x = - 14
Division Property of Equality (Divide both sides by 2)
x = -7
The nth term of any geometric sequence can be expressed as:
a(n)=ar^(n-1), a(n)=nth term, a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number...
We can easily see that the first term, a=-8
The common ratio is 4/-8=-2/4=1/-2=r=-1/2 so the rule is:
a(n)=-8(-1/2)^(n-1) so the tenth term is:
a(10)=-8(-1/2)^(10-1)
a(10)=-8(-1/2)^9
a(10)=1/64
