Set up a proportion:

kid/dad = kid/dad

8/9 = 5.5/dad

Cross multiply to solve proportions:

8*dad = 9*5.5


8*dad = 49.5

dad = 6.1875 feet

They want inches so multiply by 12:

74.25 inches

They want "nearest inch" so:

Dad is 74 inches tall.

Consider that an = 4n-1 represents a sequence. What is the tenth term? A) 361 B) 512 C) 1,024 D) 4,096 E) 262,144
mel-nik [20]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Choice E.

Discussion:

Assuming that n >=1, a(n) = 4n -1, then

a(10) = 4(10) - 1 = 39    

but that doesn't match any of the answers...... hmm...

BUT

If you meant that a(n) = 4^(n-1),  then

a(10) = 4^(10-1) = 4^9 =  262144    

which is Choice E.

Thank you,

MrB
