Write the next three terms of the arithmetic sequence.

JulijaS [17]

The next three terms are: 1/6 , 0 and -1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence is:

$\frac{5}{6} , \frac{2}{3} ,\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3} ...$

First of all, we have to find the common difference

$here\\a_1 = \frac{5}{6}\\a_2 = \frac{2}{3}\\a_3 = \frac{1}{2}\\a_4 = \frac{1}{3}\\d = a_2-a_1 = \frac{2}{3} -\frac{5}{6} = \frac{4-5}{6} = -\frac{1}{6}\\d = a_3 - a_2 = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{3-4}{6} = =\frac{1}{6}$

The common difference is -1/6

We can simply add -1/6 to the previous term to find the next terms so,

Adding -1/6 to 1/3

$\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{6} = \frac{2-1}{6} = \frac{1}{6}\\\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{6} = 0\\0-\frac{1}{6} = -\frac{1}{6}$

Hence,

The next three terms are: 1/6 , 0 and -1/6

A car travels 208 miles on 10 gallons of gasoline. Mentally calculate the number of miles that the car travels on 1 gallon of ga

jeyben [28]

10 gallons= 208
1 gallon: 208 ÷10= 20.8
(when you divide by 10, the decimal place jumps front 1 place!)

We know, 1 ounce = 29.57 ml

so, 64 ounces = 1892.71 ml

so, remaining drink would be: 1892.71-700 = 1192.71 ml

Arte-miy333 [17]

Question:

The digit 8 in which number represents a value of 8 thousandths?

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires options and the options are missing.

However, the following explanation will guide you

Start by representing 8 thousandths as a digit

$\frac{8}{1000} = 0.008$

i.e.

8 thousandths implies 0.008

Next;

Replace the 0s with dashes

_ . _ _8

Note that there are two dashes after the decimal point and before 8

PS: The dashes are used to represent digits

This implies that thousandths is the 3rd digit after the decimal point

Typical examples to back up this explanation are:

17.008, 1.1489, 0.008 and so on...
