The common ratio is the current number divided by the previous. So the ratio is 1/2
The sequence is 12, 6, 3, 3/2, 3/4 ...
You can obtain any number multiplying the previous number times 1/2.
6 = 12 *(1/2)
3 = 6*(1/2)
3/2 = 3*(1/2)
Answer:
(
5.5
,
4
)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use mid point formula shown in image
first x= (X+X)/2
x=(4+7)/2
x=11/2
x=5.5
y=(Y+Y)/2
y=(2+6)/2
y=8/2
y=4
(5.5,4)
2 1/4 miles => 1 week
1 mile => 1 ÷ 9/4
( 9/4 is an improper fraction of 2 1/4 )
12 1/2 miles => ( 1 ÷ 9/4 ) × 25/2
= 50/9
= 5 5/9 weeks
( 25/2 is an improper fraction of 12 1/2 )
Therefore, it will take 5 5/9 weeks for the company to replace the stretch of road.
( you can round it off to 6 weeks if the qn specify to give to the nearest whole number )
