Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Samantha's earnings continue to increase at the same rate, this means that her earning is increasing arithmetically.

If she earned $550 in the first day, we can say the first term is $550

If she earned $750 on the third day, we can say the third term is $750

For us to know by how much her money is increasing, we need to find the common difference d formed by the sequence

550, x , 750

T1 = 550

T2 = x

T3 = 750

Common difference d = T2-T1 = T3-T2

x - 550 = 750 - x = d

Let's calculate the second term first i.e x

Since x - 550 = 750 - x = d

x - 550 = 750 - x

Collect like terms

x+x = 750+550

2x = 1300

x = 1300/2

x = 650

d = T2-T1

d = x - T1

d = 650-550

d = 100

Hence her money keeps increasing by $100 each day

A cookie recipe calls for 1 1/3 cups of walnuts. Jen wants to use only half of this amount. How many cups of walnuts should Jen
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

4/6 or simplifed to 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find half of anything, you are dividing by 2 or multiplying it by 1/2.

If you are working in fractions, it's easier to do the later (multiplying by 1/2)

So you have 1 1/3 cups of walnuts being multiplied by 1/2.

You should convert any mixed number to an improper fraction first before multiplying or dividing with another fraction.

1 1/3 Mixed number = 4/3 as an improper fraction

So now you can use 4/3 x 1/2

To multiply fractions, you just multiply the numerators together then put that over multiplying the denominators together.

4x1    over   3x2

= 4/6

mash [69]

Answer:

c = 6.32

Step-by-step explanation:

{a}^{2} +   {b}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}  \\  {2}^{2}  +  {6}^{2}  = {c}^{2}  \\ 4 + 36 =  {c}^{2}  \\ 40 =   {c}^{2}  \\ c =  \sqrt{40}  \\ c = 6.32
