Answer:

In 10 seconds, the garden hose will emit 15 quarts of water.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of water emitted by the garden hose over time can be expressed as a ratio:  9/6, or 9 quarts of water for every 6 seconds of time.  We can then simplify this ratio to 3/2, or 3 quarts of water for every 2 seconds of time.  Since the ratio will remain constant, or the same, over time, we can set up an equivalent ratio, or fraction to find the amount of water emitted in 10 seconds:  3/2 = x/10.  We look at the denominators and see that 2 x 5 = 10.  In order to make the ratios equivalent, we would also multiply the numerator by 5:  3 x 5 = 15, which gives us the amount of water emitted in 10 seconds.

Alika [10]

Answer:

a. it is arithmentic - this is because for each term there is a constant increase of 4, and the change between each term <u>doesn't change</u>

b. you need to find the nth term, by using the equation difference x n + 0th term: the difference is (+)4 and the 0th term is -9 (-5 is the 1st term, so to go one back we subtract 4 - the inverse operation), so the nth term is 4n -9. Now we do the inverse operation on 119 to see if it's a term (it is a term if it's an integer. So, first we do 119 <u>plus</u> 9 (inverse of - 9) to get 128, then divide it by 4 rather than multiplying. This gives us 32, and that tells us that 119 is the 32nd term of the sequence.
