4 times 18 is 72. 

So. going from there

The length is 3 times the width. subtract 3 since this is the new and not the original. you have 15

and the width is diminished by one so you have to add one.

the original dimensions is 5 for the width and 15 for the length. 

Hope this helped :)

Cam was bom weighing 8.6 pounds. Every day, he gained the same amount of weight. After 30 days, he weighed 14.9
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

So I'm not entirely sure about this one, but I believe he gained 0.21 pounds each day for 30 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Cam was born weighing 8.6 pounds and after 30 days weighed 14.9, subtract 14.9-8.6 to find how much he gained.

14.9 - 8.6 = 6.3

Now that we know how much he gained, we have to find out how much he gained per day for 30 days. To do this, divide 6.3 by 30

6.3 / 30 = 0.21

To make sure this answer is correct, multiply 0.21 by 30 and add that to 8.6. It should equal 14.9.

I hope this helps!

Determine if the sequence is arithmetic write yes or no 5,9,14,20
makkiz [27]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is one where the same number is being added to the number before it. For example, 2, 4, 6, 8..., where 2 is being added to each number.

In this case, however, the number being added is not consistent with this pattern. Between 5 and 9, the difference is 4 and between 9 and 14, the difference is 5, and so forth. This pattern does not follow the rules of an arithemtic sequence.
