Answer:

<em>The suspect possesses 0.4 ounces of cocaine.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Mass Units Conversion</u>

The mass can be expressed in several units like grams, kilograms, ounces, pounds, etc. Each unit can be converted to any other multiplying by a fixed number.

The international conventions state that 1 gr = 0.035274 ounces.

If a suspect is in possession of 10 grams of cocaine, its equivalent to ounces can be calculated as 10*0.035274=0.35 oz. Rounding to the nearest tenth it would be 0.4 oz.

Since 1/8 = 0.125 and 1/2 is 0.5, our subject should be charged as a Class C felony

Write a recursive rule and explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence 19,9,-1,-11, ...
serg [7]
★ Arithmetic Progression [ Explicit and Recursive notation ] ★

Arithmetic Sequence - 19 , 9 , -1 ...

Recursive Notation -

First term = 19
Common difference = -10

In subscript notation - [ a₁ = 19 , aₙ = aₙ-₁ -10 ]
In functional notation - f(n) = f (n -1) -10

Explicit Notation - f ( n ) = f ( 1 ) + d ( n - 1 )

= 19 - 10 ( n -1 )
= 29 - 10n

It's functional and subscript notations resides the same
