Answer:
1 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 = 6/8 ( 3x2= 6 numerator ) ( 4x2= 8 denominator )
6/8 + 3/8 = 9/8 = 1 1/8

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A recursive formula consists of two parts:
- initialization (rule for the first term(s))
- rule for the next term
When we look at the differences between terms in the sequence 3, -4, -11, ..., we find that they are constant at -7. That is each term can be found from the previous one by subtracting 7. This is our recursive rule. The first term is obviously 3, so the recursive formula is ...
a[1] = 3
a[n] = a[n-1] -7
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
From noon to 1500 is three hours
train A then travels <u> 3x</u> where x = speed in km/hr
train B only travels for 2.45 hours and covers
<u> 2.45 ( x + 15) </u> where x + 15 is its speed in km/hr
these two values sum to the 300 km distance
3x + 2.45 ( x + 15) = 300
3x + 2.45 x + 36.75 = 300
x = 48.3 km/hr x+15= 63.3 km / hr

Answer: -13</h3>
=======================================
Explanation:
g(-3) = 2 means x = -3 and y = 2 pair up together to form the point (-3,2)
g(1) = -4 means we have the point (1,-4)
Find the slope of the line through the two points (-3,2) and (1,-4)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-4-2)/(1-(-3))
m = (-4-2)/(1+3)
m = -6/4
m = -3/2
m = -1.5
The general slope intercept form y = mx+b turns into y = -1.5x+b after replacing m with -1.5
Plug in (x,y) = (-3,2) which is one of the points mentioned earlier and we end up with this new equation: 2 = -1.5*(-3) + b
Let's solve for b
2 = -1.5*(-3)+b
2 = 4.5 + b
2-4.5 = 4.5+b-4.5 .... subtract 4.5 from both sides
-2.5 = b
b = -2.5
Therefore, y = mx+b becomes y = -1.5x-2.5 meaning the g(x) function is g(x) = -1.5x-2.5
The last step is to plug in x = 7 and compute
g(x) = -1.5*x - 2.5
g(7) = -1.5*7 - 2.5
g(7) = -10.5 - 2.5
g(7) = -13
