Step-by-step explanation:
Susan needs to walk a total distance of 1/2 of a mile. She has walked 1/8 of a mile so far. How much further does she have to go? Simplify the fraction if possible.
Answer:
Hulian's age is 7.
Thomas's age is 22.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Hulian = h
Let Thomas = t
Set the system of equation:
h = t - 15
h + t = 29
Plug in t - 15 for h in the second equation:
(t - 15) + t = 29
Simplify. Combine like terms:
2t - 15 = 29
Isolate the variable, t. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 15 to both sides:
2t - 15 (+15) = 29 (+15)
2t = 44
Divide 2 from both sides:
(2t)/2 = (44)2
t = 44/2
t = 22
Plug in 22 for t in one of the equations:
h = t - 15
h = 22 - 15
h = 7
Hulian's age is 7.
Thomas's age is 22.

The perimeter of the entire rectangle is 12 cm.
First we need to determine the type of progression in the question.That's geometric progression. Because the pattern from one sequence to the others are about multiplying.
Second, determine the ratio of the progressionr = a₂/a₁
r = a₂ ÷ a₁
r = 1/2 ÷ 2
r = 1/2 × 1/2
r = 1/4
Third, determine the formula to know the recursive rulea₂ = a × 1/4
a₂ = 1/4 × a
Fourth, determine a₁. a₁ is the first term of the progressiona₁ = 2
Final answer:Recursive rule

a₁ = 2
Answer:
14/3
Step-by-step explanation:
4 and 2/3 = 4 2/3 = 4 + 2/3 = 4/1 + 2/3 = 12/3 + 2/3 = 14/3
