Answer:

24(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Complete Question:</u>

A monkey is swinging from a tree. On the first swing, she passes through an arc whose length is 24 m. With each swing, she travels along an arc that is half as long as the arc of the previous swing. Which expression gives the total length the monkey swings in her first n swings?

<u>Solution:</u>

First Swing:

24 m

Second Swing:

Half of first, so

24(1/2)

Third Swing:

Half of second, so:

24(1/2)(1/2)

Fourth Swing:

24(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)

So we see the general formula as:

24(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}

<u>Note:</u> n -1 because (1/2) plays a role from second swing, which is n - 1

where n is the number of swings

A tabletop in the shape of a trapezoid has an area of 5,369 square centimeters. Its longer base measures 131 centimeters, and th
Illusion [34]

Answer:

The height of the trapezoid  = 45.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the length of the base = 131 cm

The length of the shorter side = 105 cm

Let us assume the height = h

Also, area of the trapezoid = 5,369 sq. cm

Now, AREA OF THE TRAPEZOID  = \frac{1}{2} \times \textrm{(Sum of parallel sides)} \times h

\implies 5,369  = \frac{1}{2}  \times (131 + 105) \times  h\\\implies h = \frac{5,369 \times 2}{236}  =  45.5

or, h = 45.5 cm

Hence the height of the trapezoid  = 45.5 cm

Law Incorporation [45]
H=-16t^2+56t+1, the airplane is shot up from a platform 1 foot above the ground, so 1= - 16t^2+56t+1, we solve this equation
(- 16t+56)t=0, (- 16t+56)=0 or t=o, - 16t+56=0, implies t =3.5s
so the answer is C)3.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

24-3x=-27

1) Subtract 24 from both sides:

-3x=-51

2) Divide both sides by -3:

x=17

By using the linear function which models the data in the given table, if x = 2, then y is approximately: A. -11.

<h3>What is a scatter plot?</h3>

A scatter plot can be defined as a type of graph which is used for the graphical representation of the values of two variables, with the resulting points showing any association (correlation) between the data set.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function can be defined as a type of function whose equation is graphically represented by a straight line on the cartesian coordinate.

By critically observing the graph (see attachment) which models the data in the given table, we can infer and logically deduce that the linear function is given by:

y = -5.9245x + 0.9958

If x = 2, then y is approximately:

y = -5.9245(2) + 0.9958

y = -11.849 + 0.9958

y = -10.8532 ≈ -11.
