Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: There are total 8 rabbits in a sale. Each morning the owner feeds the rabbits a total of 2 cups of pellets. Each rabbit receives the same amount of pellets.

To find: how much does each rabbit receive?

Solution:

It is given that 2 cups of pellets is shared among the rabbits, and each rabbit will receive the same number of pellets.

So, we have 8 rabbits $=$ 2 cups

1 rabbit $=\frac{2}{8}$ cups

$=\frac{1}{4}$ cups

Hence, each rabbit will receive $\frac{1}{4}$ cups of pellets.

To find 5, Beau found 22 = 4 and 32 = 9. He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, 5 is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estim

Complete question

To find $\sqrt{5}$ , Beau found $2^2 = 4$ and $3^2 = 9$ . He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, $\sqrt{5}$ , is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estimate for $\sqrt{5}$ , is $\frac{2 + 3}{2} = 2.5$ Is his estimate high or low? How do you know?

Answer:

The estimation is high because 5 is very close to 4 so $\sqrt{5}$ will also be very close to $\sqrt{4}$ which is lower than the estimate

In order to get a good estimate

The first step is to choose a number between 2 and 3 let say 2.8 , 2,85 , 2.9 and the square them

i.e

$2.1^2 = 4.41$

$2.2^2 = 4.84$

$2.3^2 = 5.29$

From here we can see that $\sqrt{5}$ lies between 2.2 and 2.3 but is closer to 2.2

So a good estimate for $\sqrt{5}$ is 2.2

Change the fraction w-3/w+5 into an equivalent fraction with the denominator w2 + w – 20.

viktelen [127]

ANSWER

$\frac{ {w}^{2} - 7w + 12}{ {w}^{2} + w - 20 }$

EXPLANATION

The given fraction is,

$\frac{w - 3}{w + 5}$

To get an equivalent fraction, we multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same quantity that will give us

w²+w-20

in the denominator.

This implies that,

$\frac{w - 3}{w + 5} = \frac{(w - 3)(w - 4)}{(w + 5)(w - 4)}$

We multiply out the numerators and denominators using the distributive property to obtain,

$\frac{w - 3}{w + 5} = \frac{ {w}^{2} - 4w - 3w + 12}{ {w}^{2} - 4w + 5w - 20 }$

This simplifies to

$\frac{w - 3}{w + 5} = \frac{ {w}^{2} - 7w + 12}{ {w}^{2} + w - 20 }$

Write the first five terms of the sequence defined by the explicit formula an=-4n(n-1)

vladimir2022 [97]

The explicit formula of the sequence is given by a_n = -4n(n-1).

We have to find the first five terms of the sequence.

The first term:

$\begin{gathered} a_1=-4\times(1)(1-1) \\ =-4(0) \\ =0 \end{gathered}$

The second term:

$\begin{gathered} a_2=-4(2)(2-1) \\ =-8(1) \\ =-8 \end{gathered}$

The third sum:

$\begin{gathered} a_3=-4(3)(3-1) \\ =-12(2) \\ =-24 \end{gathered}$

The fourth term:

$\begin{gathered} a_4=-4(4)(4-1) \\ =-16(3) \\ =-48 \end{gathered}$

The fifth term:

$\begin{gathered} a_5=-4(5)(5-1) \\ =-20(4) \\ =-80 \end{gathered}$

Thus, option D is correct.
