Our matrix C is the encoder. Let X be our secret message and let B be our encoded message. Therefore the relationship between the 3 can be represented as:
CX = B
So we want to solve for X (our secret message). So using matrix algebra:
X = C^-1*B
where C^-1 is the inverse of C.
C^-1 = | 3 -2 |
|4 -3 |
So we take C^-1 and multiply it by matrix B to get X. Matrix B is already given to us. So just multiply those two. I used a calculator to get:
X = | 20 8 5 3 15 12 15 |
| 18 9 19 2 12 21 5 |
And since A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, etc....
We decode our message and it says:
X = | T H E C O L O |
| R I S B L U E |
So the answer is: The color is blue (D)
The answer is 147 because a triangles measures up to 360 degrees so u would add the two u have up and subtract that for 360 and u get 147

Answer:
What is the question. Please rewrite the question.
Consider we need to find f(n).
Given:
Achilles ordered a pizza with 16 slices.
Every hour, he ate half of the remaining slices.
To find:
The function f(n) that is the number of slices Achilles ate in the hour since he got home.
Solution:
Initial number of slices = 16
Every hour, he ate half of the remaining slices. So, the number slices Achilles ate in the hour since he got home are:
8, 4, 2, 1, ...
It is a geometric sequence with first term 8 and common ratio 
.
The explicit formula for a geometric sequence is:
Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Substituting 
, we get
Therefore, the function f(n) that is the number of slices Achilles ate in the hour since he got home is .
