Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence :
23, 19, 13, 5, -5.......
From the sequence, the common difference is unequal, as their is a constant Increment in the difference after successive numbers.
19 - 23 = -4
13 - 19 = -6
5 - 13 = -8
-5 - 5= -10
Hence an constant difference of - 2 after each successive difference.
Hence, this is a quadratic sequence
With the formula
an² + bn + c
Hello!
The formula for volume of a rectangular prism is:
V = lwh
Let's convert the dimensions to decimals, and then use the formula to solve.
8 1/2 = 8.5 as a decimal.
7 = 7 as a decimal.
2 1/2 = 2.5 as a decimal.
Multiply:
V = 8.5 × 7 × 2.5
V = 59.5 × 2.5
V = 148.75
148.75 = 148 3/4 as a fraction because if you convert 3/4 to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator, it equals 0.75.
ANSWER:
The volume of the book is 148 3/4 inches cubed.
