Answer: 20 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the weight of each flower arrangement (each one weighs 6 2/3 pounds) and the total number of flower arrangaments Isabelle ordered (3 flower arrangements).

To make the calculus easier, we can rewrite the mixed number 6 2/3 as a decimal number:

Divide the numerator 2 by the denominator 3 and add the result to the whole number 6:

(6+0.666)lb=6.666lb

If 1 arrangement weighs 6.666 pounds, the total weigth of 3 arrangements can be calculated by multiplying 6.666 pounds by 3:

weight_{(total)}=(6.666lb)(3)\\weight_{(total)}=20lb

Disregarding wind resistance the distance a body falls from rest varies directly as th squares of the time it falls if a skydive
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The skydiver will fall 1600 ft in 10 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Distance a body falls from rest varies directly as the squares of the time it falls </u>

Let distance = s    

      time = t

Therefore , s = k \times t^{2}

Given, the body falls 64 ft in 2 seconds.

Substituting in above equation,

64 = k \times (2)^{2}

64 = k \times (4)

 k  = \frac{64}{4}

 k = 16 ft/s^{2}

We have to find how much he will fall in 10 seconds.

s = k \times t^{2}

s = 16 \times 10^{2}

s = 16 \times 100

s = 1600 ft

Find the first five terms of the recursive sequence <br> an=-6an-1 where a1=4.5
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

4.5, -27, 162,-972, 5832

Step-by-step explanation:

The given recursive definition is,

a_n=-6a_{n-1}, a_1=4.5

This will form a geometric sequence with first term 4.5 and common ratio r=-6.

When n=2, we have:

a_2=-6a_1 \\  \implies \: a_2=-6 \times 4.5 =  - 27

When n=3, we get:

a_3=-6a_2 \\  \implies \: a_3=-6 \times  - 27 =  162

When n=4, we get:

a_4=-6a_3 \\  \implies \: a_4=-6 \times 162 =  - 972

When n=5, we get:

a_5=-6a_4 \\  \implies \: a_5=-6 \times  - 972 = 5832

Therefore the first five terms are:

4.5, -27, 162,-972, 5832
