4.5 is the answer because
first I took out the decimal which the new number is now 13
13÷3=4R1( I divided it by 3 because 1 yard=3 feet)
now the reminder is 1.5 which equals 18inches and 1 yard equals 36 inches
and now since 18 is 1/2 of 36
1/2 in decimal form is 0.5 or.5
so now the answer is 4.5

Answer:

The balloon will not reach 2,500 feet after 4 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in the point-slope form is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

A hot air balloon in flight begins to ascend at a steady rate of 120 feet per minute, then the slope is

$m=120$

After $x_1=1.5$ minutes, the balloon is at an altitude of $y_1=2,150$ feet. This means, the line passes through the point (1.5, 2,150).

Substitute the slope and point coordinates into the equation:

$y-2,150=120(x-1.5)$

We know that after 3 minutes, the balloon is at an altitude of 2,330 feet. Check this:

$2,330-2,150=180\\ \\120(3-1.5)=120\cdot 1.5=180\\ \\2,330-2,150=120(3-1.5)$

Now, find the height after 4 minutes:

$y-2,150=120(4-1.5)\\ \\y=120\cdot 2.5+2,150=300+2,150=2,450$

Thus, the balloon will reach only 2,450 feet after 4 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

${ {a}^{b} }^{c} = {a}^{bc } \\ in \: this \: case \\ { ({8}^{n}) }^{3} = {8}^{3n} \\ \\ {8}^{3n} = {8}^{6 } \\ 3n = 6 \\ n = \frac{6}{3} = 2$
