Answer:
1m = 100 cm
First sprinter stride is 120 cm. Steps he will take
= 100/1.2 = 83 1/3 steps
Second sprinter takes a stride of 75 cm
= 100/0.75 = 133 1/3 steps
Just plug in -1 for x and u should get ur answer
BE and CD are parallel, so the triangles ABE and ACD are similar. Then the following relation holds:
AE/AD = AB/AC
10/(10 + 8) = x/(x + 6)
Solve for x :
10 (x + 6) = x (10 + 8)
10x + 60 = 18x
8x = 60
x = 60/8 = 7/5
12.6 repeating is the equivalent of 12.666666666666 and so on but if you rounded, it would be 12.67. So, compare 12.67 and 12.63. 12.67 is larger.
Answer:
f(8) = 65
Step-by-step explanation:
Find a pattern in the sequence. It might be an <u>arithmetic sequence</u> (always adds or subtract by a certain number), or a <u>geometric sequence</u> (always multiplies or divides by a certain number).
To find a pattern in this decreasing sequence, we find either the common difference or the common divisor of each pair of consecutive numbers.
• 100 - 95 = 5
• 95 - 90 = 5
• 90 - 85 = 5
• 85 - 80 = 5
• 80 - 75 = 5
Now, we know that this is an <u>arithmetic sequence</u>, and the common difference is <u>5</u>.
To calculate f(8), we find the 8th term in the sequence. We can do that by counting the terms in the sequence and using the common difference, 5, that we found, to continue the sequence.
• f(1) = 100
• f(2) = 95
• f(3) = 90
......
• f(7) = 70
• f(8) = 65
