1) let's convert the maximum altitude of the black kite from feet to meters. We can do it by using the following proportion:
From which we find
This is the maximum altitude (in meters) of the black kite. The problem says that the maximum altitude of the red kite is 117.46 m, therefore the red kite is the one with higher maximum altitude.
2) Let's convert the maximum altitude of the red kite from meters to feet, again by using the proportion:
From which we find
Therefore, the maximum altitude of the red kite in feet is 385.37 ft.
#11: First term is 2. Formula for the (n+1)th term is (previous term) + 3.
Thus, we have 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, ... This is an arithmetic sequence with common difference 3.
#12 First term is -4. Formula for the (n+1)th term is (previous term) + n^2.
Second term (n=2): -4 + (2^2) = 0
Third term (n=3) : 0+3^2 = 9
Fourth term (n=4): 9 + 4^2 = 25
Fifth term (n=5) : 25 + 5^2 = 50
Should be:
=1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48, 1823, 3646, 5469, 7292, 10938, 14584, 21876, 29168, 43752, 87504
