-8, -19, -30, -49 , -60

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have the following sequence :

-8, -19, -30, _ , _

First term of sequence is -8 .
Second term of sequence is -19 : $-8-11 = -19$
Third term of sequence is -30 : $-19-11 = -30$
Fourth term of sequence is : $-30-11 = -49$
Fifth term of sequence is : $-49-11 = -60$

Following sequence was an AP( Arithmetic Progression ) with first term as -8 i.e. $a = -8$ and common difference $d = -11$ having general equation as : $-8 -11n$ .

What is the gradient of the graph shown?

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

gradient = $\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the gradient m using the gradient formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{2-0}{0-(-6)}$ = $\frac{2}{0+6}$ = $\frac{2}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$

pat needs 14 sticks of pepperoni to make 28 pizzas.How many sticks of pepperoni are needed to make 36 pizzas

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

18 sticks of pepperoni

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we have to find out how many pepperoni sticks are needed for just 1 pizza. If it takes 14 sticks to make 28 pizzas, that means it takes only half a stick to make a single pizza.

Now that we have this information, we can multiply 1/2 by 36 to find out how many sticks of pepperoni are needed to make 36 pizzas.

$\frac{1}{2} * 36\\\\\frac{1}{2} * \frac{36}{1} \\ =\\\frac{36}{2} \\ =\\\frac{18}{1}$
