Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

⇔ We can set up an equation using the information given to us

16 =1 \frac{2}{10} x+-8

We can that 16 is equal or the same as, one and two tenths times a number which is 'x' added to negative 8

⇔ The minus cancels out the plus

16=1\frac{2}{10} x-8

⇔ Add 8 to both sides to isolate  1\frac{2}{10} x

24 =1 \frac{2}{10} x\\

⇔ Convert  1\frac{2}{10} x  to improper fraction to make solving easier

24 = \frac{12}{10} x

⇔ Multiply both sides by 10 to isolate 12x

240 = 12x

⇔ Divide both sides by 12 to isolate x

20 = x

→ The 'number' is 20

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

16=1 2/10R + -8

16+8= 12/10R

24=12/10R

R=20

Marissa and Callie both have babysitting jobs. Marissa charges $19 plus $1.50 per hour. Callie charges $15 plus $2.75 per hour.
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation

19 +1.5x < 15+2.75x

Subtarct 15 on both sides

4+1.5x<2.75x

subtract 1.5x on both sides

4< 1.25x

Divide 1.25 on each side

3.2<X

Since they on,y charge per hour so 4 hours

Write a recursive rule for the sequence.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2)

f(1)=1x

f(2)=1x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the fibonacci sequence with each term times x.

Notice, you are adding the previous two terms to get the third term per consecutive triples of the sequence.

That is:

1x+1x=2x

1x+2x=3x

2x+3x=5x

3x+5x=8x

So since we need the two terms before the third per each consecutive triple in the sequence, our recursive definition must include two terms of the sequence. People normally go with the first two.

f(1)=1x since first term of f is 1x

f(2)=1x since second term of f is 1x

Yes, I'm naming the sequence f.

So I said a third term in a consecutive triple of the sequence is equal to the sum of it's two prior terms. Example, f(3)=f(2)+f(1) and f(4)=f(3)+f(2) and so on...

Note, the term before the nth term is the (n-1)th term and the term before the (n-1)th term is the (n-2)th term. Just like before the 15th term you have the (15-1)th term and before that one you have the (15-2)th term. That example simplified means before the 15th term you have the 14th and then the 13th.

So in general f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2).

So the full recursive definition is:

f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2)

f(1)=1x

f(2)=1x

pochemuha

Answer:

20,18,16,14,12,10,8,6,4,2

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

Step-by-step explanation:

Pattern A:

Rule : start with 20 and subtract 2

Pattern B:

Rule : Start with 10 and subtract 1

Pattern 1:

20 - 2 = 18

18 - 2 = 16

16 - 2 = 14

14 - 2 = 12

12 - 2 = 10

10 - 2 = 8

8 - 2 = 6

6 - 2 = 4

4 - 2 = 2

20,18,16,14,12,10,8,6,4,2

Pattern 2:

10 - 1 = 9

9 - 1 = 8

8 - 1 = 7

7 - 1 = 6

6 - 1 = 5

5 - 1 = 4

4 - 1 = 3

3 - 1 = 2

2 - 1 = 1
