The first term is a₁ = 2.
Each subsequent term is the reciprocal of the square of the preceding term.

2nd term:
a₂ = 1/2² = 1/4

3rd term:
a₃ = 1/(1/4)² = 1/(1/16) = 16

4th term:
a₄ = 1/16² = 1/256

5th term:
a₅ = 1/(1/256)² = 1/(1/65536) = 65536
The positive square root of the fifth term is
√(65536) = 256

Answer: 256

HACTEHA [7]

Ella has to add 32.833 lbs of water to get 33.333 lbs of syrup.

<u>Solution:</u>

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. Let x lbs be the amount of water Ella should add to get the 1.5% of syrup,

\Rightarrow0.5\text{ lbs }- 1.5\%

\Rightarrow x+0.5\text{ lbs }- 100\%

On writing the proportion,

\Rightarrow\dfrac{0.5}{x+0.5}=\dfrac{1.5}{100}\\ \\\Rightarrow0.5\cdot 100=(x+0.5)\cdot 1.5\\ \\\Rightarrow50=1.5x+0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=50-0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=49.25\\ \\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{49.25}{1.5}\approx 32.833\ lbs

To get 1.5% syrup Ella should add 32.833 lbs of water. The total weight of syrup is 33.333 lbs.

Answer:

  multiply by 3 and divide by 2 to get 6x -y = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard form equation has mutually prime integers for coefficients, and the leading one is positive. We can get that here by multiplying by 3 (to eliminate the denominator) and dividing by 2 (to remove that common factor). The result is ...

  4(3/2)x -(2/3)(3/2)y = 8(3/2)

  6x -y = 12
