Answer:

6\frac{3}{8} feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jebb's Height Calculation:

The heights are given in <em>Mixed Fraction</em>. A mixed fraction is comprised of a whole number and a proper fraction, where as <em>proper fraction </em>is the one whose numerator is less than its denominator and <em>improper fraction </em>is the one whose numerator is greater than its denominator:

Shortest girl in the Sixth Grade = 4\frac{1}{4} feet

<em>Converting the height in improper fraction</em>:

\frac{17}{4} feet

Jebb's Height = 1\frac{1}{2} feet  x The shortest girl height

<em>Converting the height of Jebb in Improper Fraction</em>:

\frac{3}{2} feet x \frac{17}{4} feet

<em>To find the Jebb's height we multiply 3 by 17 and 2 by 4 to get a improper fraction of</em>;

Jebb's Height =  \frac{51}{8} feet

We can convert the above in mixed fraction as follows:

6\frac{3}{8} feet tall.

Write a rule for the nth term of the geometric sequence for which a1=−6 and a5=−486
patriot [66]

The geometric rule for the nth term of the geometric sequence for which a1 =−6 and a5=−486 is -6 × 3^(n - 1)

<h3>The nth term of a geometric sequence</h3>

First term, a1 = -6

Fifth term, a5 = -486

a5 = ar^(n - 1)

-486 = -6 × r^(5-1)

-486 = -6r⁴

r⁴ = -486 / 6

r⁴ = 81

r = 4√81

r = 3

Geometric rule:

nth term = ar^(n-1)

nth term = -6 × 3^(n - 1)

On Planet Galactica, common units of distance are alpha, beta, and gamma. 4 gammas equal 5 betas. 2 betas equal 3 alphas. How ma
Ghella [55]

Answer:

1 gamma = 15/8 alphas

Step-by-step explanation:

so we start by finding out what 1 gamma and 1 beta equals.

we know 4 gammas = 5 betas so if we divide by four on both sides we get:

1 gamma = 5/4 betas. we can apply that same procedure to 2 betas = 3 alphas and get 1 beta = 3/2 alphas

we know that 1 gamma = 5/4 betas and 1 beta = 3/2 alphas so how many alphas = 5/4 betas? using a proportion of ((3/2)/1) = ((x)/(5/4)) we can find that 5/4 betas = 15/8 alphas

therefore we know 1 gamma = 15/8 alphas or 1 and 7/8 alphas
