Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation: The common difference is the difference between each of the terms in an arithmetic sequence.

Let's work backwards.

First, we take the last term we are given and

subtract the second to last term.

So here, we subtract 23 - 14 to get 9.

Now, we take 14 - 5 to get 9.

Notice that 9 is our answer in both problems above.

That means it's our common difference.

A = 1/2bh...for h

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total yards of satin bought by Maddie = $3\frac{2}{3}$ yards

Number of yards required make one ribbon = $\frac{2}{3}$ yards

To find:

Number of complete bows that can be made ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about converting the mixed fraction to fractional form.

Formula:

$a\dfrac{b}{c} = \dfrac{a\times c+b}{c}$

Therefore, total yards of satin bought by Maddie can be written in fractional form as:

$3\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{3\times 3+2}{3} = \dfrac{11}{3}$

One hair bow requires $\frac{2}{3}$ yards of ribbon.

Number of hair bows that can be made, can be found by dividing the total ribbon length by ribbon required for making one hair bow.

Answer is:

$\dfrac{\frac{11}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{11\times 3}{2\times 3}\\\approx 4$

4 hair bows can be made.
