Answer:  3.165 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

3 pairs=6 earrings

P=(a+2b)6

a=2cm

50/6=2+2b

8.33-2=2b

6.33=2b

b=3.165 cm

) Three sides of a quadrilateral are the same length, q. The length of the fourth side is 7 inches.
Kruka [31]

Answer:

q=(40-7)/3 or simplified q=11

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the perimeter is 40 inches and one of the sides is 7 so logically we do 40-7 to get the length of the three remaining sides combined. Then to find the length q, we have to divide that answer by 3 because the three sides have the same length or (40-7)/3, which simplified is 11, so the length of the side is 11 inches and the expression is q=(40-7)/3.

Consider the sequence of numbers: 3/8, 3/4, 1 /18, 1 1/2, 1 7/8
vredina [299]

Question:

Consider the sequence of numbers: \frac{3}{8}, \frac{3}{4}, 1\frac{1}{8}, 1\frac{1}{2}, 1\frac{7}{8}

Which statement is a description of the sequence?

(A) The sequence is recursive, where each term is 1/4 greater than its preceding term.

(B) The sequence is recursive and can be represented by the function

f(n + 1) = f(n) + 3/8 .

(C) The sequence is arithmetic, where each pair of terms has a constant difference of 3/4 .

(D) The sequence is arithmetic and can be represented by the function

f(n + 1) = f(n)3/8.

Answer:

Option B:

The sequence is recursive and can be represented by the function

f(n + 1) = f(n) + \frac{3}{8}  .

Explanation:

A sequence of numbers are

\frac{3}{8}, \frac{3}{4}, 1\frac{1}{8}, 1\frac{1}{2}, 1\frac{7}{8}

Let us first change mixed fraction into improper fraction.

\frac{3}{8}, \frac{3}{4}, \frac{9}{8}, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{15}{8}

To find the pattern of the sequence.

To find the common difference between the sequence of numbers.

\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{6}{8}-\frac{3}{8}= \frac{3}{8}

\frac{9}{8}-\frac{3}{4}=\frac{9}{8}-\frac{6}{8}= \frac{3}{8}

\frac{3}{2}-\frac{9}{8}=\frac{12}{8}-\frac{9}{8}= \frac{3}{8}

\frac{15}{8}-\frac{3}{2}=\frac{15}{8}-\frac{12}{8}= \frac{3}{8}

Therefore, the common difference of the sequence is 3.

That means each term is obtained by adding \frac{3}{8} to the previous term.

Hence, the sequence is recursive and can be represented by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) + \frac{3}{8}  .

Mark can remember only the first 4 digits of his friend's phone number. He also knows that the number has 7 digits and that the
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<em>19800 seconds, or 330 minutes, or 5 hours + 30 minutes</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Number Permutations</u>

We know the phone number has 7 digits, 4 of which are known by Mark. This leaves him 3 digits to guess with. We also know the last one is not zero. The number can be represented as

XXY

Where X can be any digit from 0 to 9 and Y can be any digit from 1 to 9. The first two can be combined in 10x10 ways, and the last one can be of 9 ways, this gives us 10x10x9 = 900 possible permutations.

If each possible number takes him 22 seconds, every possibility will need

22x900=19800 seconds, or 330 minutes, or 5 hours + 30 minutes

What’s is the value of n? HELP ASAP PLEASE
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The answer should be 69°

Step-by-step explanation:

Each line is being cut by a transversal, that means that the degree on the other side of it, added with the given degree will add up to 180°

1. On the right, you need to find the interior angle where 160° is outside so you subtract 180° from 160° to find the angle inside. That gives you 20°

2. On the top left you have 131° so 180°-131°=49°

Next you add the angles you have and then subtract it from 180 to get the interior angle with n° outside.

3. 20°+49°=69°

4. 180°-69°=111°

Then you do the same thing as the beginning which would be n°+111°=180°

5. n°+111°=180°, that means n=69°

Hopefully that clears it up for you :)
