Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there's only 1 letter.

Tania sends the letter to 4 friends.

Each friend sends a letter to 4 more friends (4 × 4 = 16).

Each of those friends sends to 4 more friends (16 × 4 = 64).

The pattern is 1, 4, 16, 64, etc.

This is a geometric sequence.  The first term is 1 and each term is 4 times the previous term.

a₁ = 1

aₙ = 4 aₙ₋₁

The explicit formula is:

aₙ = 1 (4)ⁿ⁻¹

If 34 percent of 60 million barrels is gasoline and 29 percent of 60 million barrels is desil how many more barrels are there of
Andre45 [30]

The difference between 34 percent and 29 percent is :

34 - 29 = 5 percent.

60 million times 5% = 60 x 0.05 = 3 million

to check:

60 million x 34% = 20,400,000 barrels

60 million x 29% = 17,400,000 barrels

20,400,000 - 17, 400,000 = 3,000,000 barrels

There are 3 million more barrels of gasoline.

What is the question? If it is how long is the total hike, then 17+2=19 (that’s half way).

19x2 =38. 38k is the total round trip of the hike.
