1.25
If you take the difference between two y axis numbers (say 5 and 10) which is 5 and the difference between two X axis numbers (say 4 and 8) which is 4. The y axis is the rise(5) and the x axis is the run(4). Using the formula rise/run (5/4) you can calculate the answer to be 1.25.
Answer:
Ok, first in our series we can see two numbers in the Sigma, one bellow 0, and other above, 4.
This means that the value of k will go from 0 to 4, then all the numbers in the sum are:
(-1/2)^0 + (-1/2)^1 + (-1/2)^2 + (-1/2)^3 + (-1/2)^4
So we have 5 terms in our series.
b) to see the sign in each term, we must solve the powers, remember that:
(-1)^n is -1 if n is odd, and is equal to 1 if n is even, so we have:
(-1/2)^0 + (-1/2)^1 + (-1/2)^2 + (-1/2)^3 + (-1/2)^4
= 1 -1/2 + 1/4 - 1/8 + 1/16.
So the sign in each term of the series alternates.
Ahh... this is pretty easy!!
.
Locomotive is 40 feet.
.
Model is 16.
.
So?
.
Divide 40 by 16!!
.
What's that?
.
2.5.
.
So your answer choice is 2.5

Hope I helped!!
