Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What i would do is turn the first one into an improper fraction
7/5 x 1/4
it's easier to multiply this way
see if you can simplify any of the terms first
7 1
5 4
none of the numbers can be broken down further so we just multiply straight across
7 x 1 is 7
5 times 4 is 20
so the answer would be 7/20
Answer:
- geometric sequence with initial value 20 and common ratio 1/2
- average rate of change on [1, 3] = -7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The given points have sequential values of x and values of y that are each 1/2 the value before. The common ratio tells us the sequence is a geometric sequence.
(b) The first given point is (2, 10), so extrapolating backward, we determine the previous point to be ...
... (2-1, 10/(1/2)) = (1, 20)
Thus, we have enough information to determine the average slope between n=1 and n=3.
... (difference in y)/(difference in n) = (5 -20)/(3 -1) = -15/2 = -7.5
Answer:
Option D.
Step-by-step explanation:
- First, the you need ti understand that the triangle is an isosceles right angled triangle. In other words, the base and height are equal in length. The third side is the slide. This is the longest side.
- Next, we know that the formula for calculating the area of a right angled triangle is given by:
A = 1/2 (base × perpendicular height)
- The perpendicular height is equal to the base. Let's say the base is <em>x</em>. It means that the height is also x, since height = base.
- Therefore, the formula will be:
A = 1/2 (x.x)
=1/2 (x²)
32 = 1/2 (x²)
Multiplying both sides by 2 gives:
32×2 = x²
64 = x²
8 = x
To find the third side, we use the Pythagoras theorem:
C² = A² + B²
= 8² + 8²
= 128
C = √128
= 8√2
However, the answer will not be exact, so we multiply the length of the base and height by 2. This gives x = 16 (Length of base = length of height)
Repeating the steps above gives C = √ (16)² + (16)²
= √256
This corresponds to option D.
