Answer:   990 lbs

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

Set up the proportion, then cross multiply and solve for the unknown value (pounds).

\dfrac{55\ lbs}{404\ sq\ ft}=\dfrac{x}{7272\ sq\ ft}\\\\\\55\ lbs\cdot 7272\ sq\ ft=404\ sq\ ft\cdot x\\\\\\\dfrac{55\ lbs\cdot 7272\ sq\ ft}{404\ sq\ ft}=x\\\\\\990\ lbs=x

F(n)=45⋅(4/5)^n−1<br> complete the recursive formula of f(n)
Radda [10]

F(1) = 45

f(n) = f(n-1) * 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = 45 x (4/5)ⁿ⁻¹

f(1) = 45 x (4/5)¹⁻¹ = 45 x (4/5)⁰ = 45 x 1 = 45

f (n-1) = 45 x (4/5)ⁿ⁻¹⁻¹ = 45 x (4/5)ⁿ⁻²

f(n) = f(n-1) * (4/5)¹ = 45 x (4/5) ⁿ⁻²⁺¹ = 45 x (4/5)ⁿ⁻¹
