Answer:
- using the rule given: 2.5
- using an exponential rule: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5
_____
We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...
an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)
Then, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7
_____
When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.

Answer:
number of dimes 11 to 14
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
coin = 19
worth no less = $1.30
Nolan nickles = 5
solution
we convert 5 cent to dollars, it will be
5÷100 = $0.05
and
dime is worth 10 cents
so it will be 10 ÷ 100 = $0.1
so we consider here x as the number when nickels.
and we consider y as the number of dimes.
so here we can say
x + y ≤ 19 ..........................1
as here no less than $1.30 combined.
so
0.05 x + 0.1 y ≥ 1.3 ......................2
and
when Nolan has 5 nickels
put x = 5 in eq 1
5 + y ≤ 19
y ≤ 19 - 5
y ≤ 14
and
now we put x = 5 in eq 2
0.05 × 5 + 0.1y ≥ 1.3
0.25 + 0.1y ≥ 1.3
0.1y ≥ 1.3 - 0.25
0.1y ≥ 1.05
y ≥ 10.5
so all possible values for the number of dimes 11 to 14
Answer:
After 2.5 minutes the pool will have 27 gallons of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pool has already 12 gallons of water and Eric wants to fill it to at least 27 gallons.
The water is flowing at a rate of 6 gallons per minute.
Let, after t minutes the pool will have at least 27 gallons of water.
Therefore, we can write the equation as
27 = 12 + 6t
⇒ 6t = 15
⇒ t = 2.5 minutes.
Therefore, after 2.5 minutes the pool will have 27 gallons of water. (Answer)
