Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the ratios between consecutive terms is constant, that is
- 220 ÷ 11 = 4400 ÷ - 220 = - 88000 ÷ 4400 = - 20
Thus to obtain the next term in the sequence multiply the previous term by - 20
Start with 11 and multiply by - 20
L(m) = 1.5 + 2m.....when snake is 8 months..m = 8
L(8) = 1.5 + 2(8)
L(8) = 1.5 + 16
L(8) = 17.5 inches <==
L(m) = 1.5 + 2m....length is 25.5.....L(m) = 25.5
25.5 = 1.5 + 2m
25.5 - 1.5 = 2m
24 = 2m
24/2 = m
12 = m ....12 months <==
The problem is meant to be set up like this:
100÷ 5 × 4 + 4^3
simply because it is 4 cubed at the end.
and the answer is 144! :)))))
