Answer:

19.375 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the first bounce it has travelled 10 meters.

Then after just hitting the ground the second time it has travelled 10 +1/2(10) = 15 m.

The common ratio is 0.5 and we want the sum of  5 terms

= a1  (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)

= 10 * (1 - 0.5^5) / (1 - 0.5)

= 19.375 m.

A circle with center at (-2,2) passes through (7,2). Find the circumference and area of the circle in terms of p.
____ [38]

Answer:

18pi units is the circumference

81pi units² is the area

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius² = (-2-7)² + (2-2)² = 9²

Radius = 9

Circumference = 2pi×r

= 18pi

Area = pi × r²

= 81pi

Please answer 2 and 3 !!
Usimov [2.4K]

(2) So we know Ethan uses 1/4 cup of milk for his cake. And if he needs to make 3 times the amount of 1 cake, he'll make 3 cakes today. So we multiply the amount of cakes (3) by the amount of milk needed (1/4)

3 * 1/4 = 3/4

Ethan will need 3/4 cups of milk.

(3) We know Isabella need's 2/5 of a gallon of the food to make 1 gallon.

She want's to make 5 gallons, so like the other problem, we multiply the amount of gallons (5) by the amount of food needed (2/5):

5 * 2/5 = 10/5 = 2/1.

Isabella will need 2 gallons of food.
