This sequence starts with an initial set; let’s call it s1. This set contains 20 cans, and every set following would have two less cans than the last set. So,

s1=20
s2=s1-2=18
s3=s2-2=16
•
•
•
s9=s8-2=4

How many cans in the display represents the value of each set added together, so we can denote this as

s1+s2+s3+...+s9

and replacing with values:

20+18+16+...+4 = 108

The number of cans in the display equals 108.

(The set notation seems weird, but by practicing this application now, the Calculus version will seem easier.)

Question 4 pleaseeeeeee
arsen [322]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate means one quantity in terms of another unit quantity. In the answer choices, we see that the denominator is always in terms of UNIT LITERS (1 L), so that means, we have to find gallons in terms of UNIT LITERS.

It means, we have to divide gallons by liters to get in terms of unitary liters.

Let's check the first line:

19.5/75 = 0.26 Gallons / 1 Liter

Now, checking 2nd:

39/150 = 0.26 Gallons / 1 Liter

So, yes, they are the same and other 2 lines would be the same as well. The unit rate is:

0.26 gal/1L

That's answer choice B
