Is 1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3, 16/3 arithmetic sequence

11111nata11111 [884]

The given sequence is not arithmetic sequence

Solution:

Given sequence is:

$\frac{1}{3} , \frac{2}{3} , \frac{4}{3} , \frac{8}{3} , \frac{16}{3}$

We have to find if the above sequence is arithmetic sequence or not

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant

Here in the given sequence

$\text{ first term } = a_1 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\\text{ second term } = a_2 = \frac{2}{3}\\\\\text{ third term } = a_3 = \frac{4}{3}\\\\\text{ fourth term } = a_4 = \frac{8}{3}\\\\\text{ fifth term } = a_5 = \frac{16}{3}$

Let us find the difference between terms

$a_2 - a_1 = \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3}$

$a_3 - a_2 = \frac{4}{3} - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{3}$

$a_4 - a_3 = \frac{8}{3} - \frac{4}{3} = \frac{4}{3}$

$a_5 - a_4 = \frac{16}{3} - \frac{8}{3} = \frac{8}{3}$

Thus the difference between terms is not constant

So the given sequence is not arithmetic sequence

What is how do I find m and b?

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept → (0, b)

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

=====================================

From the table we have y-intercept (0, 5) → b = 5 and other point (1, 26).

Calculate the slope:

$m=\dfrac{26-5}{1-0}=\dfrac{21}{1}=21$

7/8 - 1/4 - 1/2= ??

madreJ [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can break this up into pieces, first we do, 7/8 - 1/4, find the least common denominator which is 8, so the equation will be 7/8 - 2/8, which we can now subtract and will give us, 5/8, now that we have done that, we can do 5/8 - 1/2. Since we know that half of 8 (our denominator) is 4. Then the equation would be 5/8 - 4/8, which brings us to 1/8 as our final answer.

Cheers!

Part A

labwork [276]

An algebraic expression is one that consists of both number(s) and an alphabet(s). The required answers are:

i. Distance from Chenoa's house to the coffee shop = 6.0 miles

ii. Distance from coffee shop to Chenoa's school = 1.5 miles

iii. Distance from Chenoa's house to her school = 7.5 miles

An algebraic expression is one that consists of both number(s) and an alphabet(s). The alphabet is referred to as the unknown whose value has to be determined.

In the given question, let the distance from the coffee shop to Chenoa's school be represented by y.

So that;

The distance from Chenoa's house to the coffee shop = (2y + 3) miles.

The total distance from Chenoa's house to her school = 5y.

This implies that:

(2y + 3) + y = 5y

3y + 3 = 5y

3 = 5y - 3y

2y = 3

y = $\frac{3}{2}$

= 1.5

The distance from the coffee shop to Chenoa's school is 1.5 miles.

Thus;

(2y + 3) = ( 2(1.5) + 3)

= 6

The distance from Chenoa's house to the coffee shop is 6 miles.

And,

5y = 5(1.5)

= 7.5

The total distance from Chenoa's house to her school is 7.5 miles.
