The purchasing power of Sandra's savings according to the description above has decreased.

<h3>What happens to the purchasing power of Sandra's savings?</h3>

It follows from the task content that Sandra's savings attracted an annual interest rate of 1% while the inflation is 2% per annum. On this note, it follows that Sandra's savings purchasing power has reduced as the prices of commodities have gone up and the interest rate is unable to match it.

Explain why it's possible to draw more than two different rectangles with an area of 36 square units but if not possible draw mo
gavmur [86]
The area of a rectangle is the result of multiplying its length times its width. So the rectangles length and width are factor pairs of the area.

The number 36 has four non-equal, whole number factor pairs: (1,36) ; (2,18) ; (3,13) ; (4,9)

*note : (6,6) makes a square not rectangle

The number 15 has only two whole number factor pairs (1,15) and (3,5)

Ron walked 8/10 mile from his grandmother's house to the store then store. Then he walked 9/10 mile to his house. About how far
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The total distance he walked was 17/10 miles or 1.7 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ron's walk was divided into two parts, one that goes from his grandmother's house to the store and then from the store to his house. The total distance that he walked is given by the sum of the two separate parts, so in order to calculate how far he walked we will do as follows:

Total distance = 8/10 + 9/10

Total distance = 17/10 mile = 1.7 miles

The total distance he walked was 17/10 miles or 1.7 miles.

A playground is being designed where children can interact with their friends in certain combinations. If there is 1 child, ther
mariarad [96]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>Recursive equation for the pattern followed is given by,</u></em>

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In the question,

The number of interaction for 1 child = 0

Number of interactions for 2 children = 1

Number of interactions for 3 children = 5

Number of interaction for 4 children = 14

So,

We need to find out the pattern for the recursive equation for the given conditions.

So,

We see that,

a_{1}=0\\a_{2}=1\\a_{3}=5\\a_{4}=14\\

Therefore, on checking, we observe that,

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}

On checking the equation at the given values of 'n' of, 1, 2, 3 and 4.

<u>At, </u>

<u>n = 1</u>

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}\\a_{1}=a_{1-1}+(1-1)^{2}\\a_{1}=0+0=0\\a_{1}=0

which is true.

<u>At, </u>

<u>n = 2</u>

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}\\a_{2}=a_{2-1}+(2-1)^{2}\\a_{2}=a_{1}+1\\a_{2}=1

Which is also true.

<u>At, </u>

<u>n = 3</u>

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}\\a_{3}=a_{3-1}+(3-1)^{2}\\a_{3}=a_{2}+4\\a_{3}=5

Which is true.

<u>At, </u>

<u>n = 4</u>

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}\\a_{4}=a_{4-1}+(4-1)^{2}\\a_{4}=a_{3}+9\\a_{4}=14

This is also true at the given value of 'n'.

<em><u>Therefore, the recursive equation for the pattern followed is given by,</u></em>

a_{n}=a_{n-1}+(n-1)^{2}
