A piece of duct measures 48 inches. When pieces are fitted together, 1 12

Answer:

A piece of duct measures 48 inches.

In each connection, we lost 1 1/2 inches (i guess that it is what you wanted to write)

Then:

If we have 7 pieces of duct connected we have 5 connections (the ones in the extremes are not connected between them, so the number of connections is equal to the number of ducts minus two.)

So here we have 7 times 48 inches for the pieces, minus 5 times 1 1/2 in (i will write 1 1/2 = 1 + 0.5 = 1.5 in, so the math is easier)  for the connections, the length is:

L = 7*48in - 5*1.5in = 328.5 inches.

for the 12 pieces duct, we have 12 pieces and 10 connections, so the length is:

L = 12*48in - 10*1.5in = 561 in

Now, if we want to make only one duct with those two, then we must add their lengths, but if we connect them, we also need to subtract the 1.5in of the new connection:

L = 561in + 328.5in - 1.5in = 888in

Find the common ratio for the geometric sequence for which a1=3 and a5=48
Rama09 [41]

The ratio is common, so you could write:

a1 * r^4 = a^5 (you do r^4 because there are 4 times you need to multiply by the ratio to get from a1 to a5)

Plug in the values:

3 * r^4 = 48

Divide by 3:

r^4 = 16

Take the fourth root of both sides:

r = 2

The common ratio is 2.

If the label of a can of yams were cut off and laid flat, which expression would give the area, A, of the label with the measure
Damm [24]
I think you are missing information to solve this problem.  Should there me an image attached to this question.

Either way, to solve for the label, the label would most likely me a rectangle when laid flat.

It's dimensions would be length x height.

Where height is most likely "h"
and
length is most likely the circumference (2πr)

Thus the possible answers are either:

B or C

I can't answer it until I see an image when more detail.

Hope this helps!
