Answer: the height in inches, of the pile after 3 weeks is 34 11/12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Each consecutive week for the next 5 weeks the height of pile increase by 8 7/12 inches. Converting 8 7/12 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 103/12 inches. The height is increasing in an arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as
Tn = a + (n - 1)d
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
d represents the common difference.
n represents the number of terms in the sequence.
From the information given,
a = 17 3/4= 71/4 inches
d = 103/12 inches
n = 3 weeks
the height in inches, of the pile after 3 weeks, T3. Therefore,
T3 = 71/4 + (3 - 1)103/12
T3 = 71/4 + 2 × 103/12 = 71/4 + 103/6
T3 = 419/12 inches = 34 11/12 inches
They hiked more on the 2nd day because they are retracing their steps.
Answer:
General equation of line : 
--1
Where m is the slope or unit rate
Table 1)
p d
1 3
2 6
4 12
d = Number of dollars (i.e.y axis)
p = number of pound(i.e. x axis)
First find the slope
First calculate the slope of given points
---A
Substitute values in A
Thus the unit rate is 3 dollars per pound.
So, It matches the box 1 (Refer the attached figure)
Equation 1 : 
Since p is the x coordinate and d is the y coordinate
On Comparing with 1
Thus the unit rate is 
dollars per pound
So, It matches the box 2 (Refer the attached figure)
Equation 2 : 
Since p is the x coordinate and d is the y coordinate
On Comparing with 1
Thus the unit rate is 9 dollars per pound
So, It matches the box 3 (Refer the attached figure)
Table 2)
p d
1/9 1
1 9
2 18
d = Number of dollars (i.e.y axis)
p = number of pound(i.e. x axis)
Substitute values in A
Thus the unit rate is 9 dollars per pound
So, It matches the box 3 (Refer the attached figure)
In probability, there are hint clues that you must be vigilant of. When it tells you to find the probability of event 1 'or' event 2, you must ADD their individual probabilities. When it tells you to find the probability of event 1 'and' event 2, you must MULTIPLY their individual probabilities.
Now, you have two dices. You are asked to find the probability of getting a face of 3, 4 or 5. The probability of each face of a dice is 1/6, because there are a total of 6 faces. When you use two dices, it becomes 2/12 or still 1/6. So, the total probability of getting either 3, 4 or 5 is: 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/2. However, you still have to multiply this with the total probability of getting a prime numbers which are 1, 2, 3 and 5. Thus, 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/3
Hence, the total probability would be 1/2 * 2/3 = 1/3 or 33%
Answer: The correct answer for this question is: (17+p)/8
