Before attempting to solve any problem, make sure that the units are consistent. There are units of feet and inches. To be consistent,let's convert ft to in knowing that there are 12 inches in 1 ft.
9 ft*12 in/1 ft = 108 inches
Now, it also mentions that there are 5 of these. So, the total length would be:
Total Length = 108*5 = 540 inches
Finally, divide the total length to 15 inches.
Number of portions = 540/15 = <em>36 pieces of 15-inch ribbons</em>
1. A=(0,4)
2. B=(4,1)
3. Slope=-3/4
Answer:
a(4) = 15/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we're told that the first term is a(1) = 30 and that the common factor r = 1/2.
Thus, the geometric sequence formula specific to this case is
a(n) = 30(1/:2)^(n-1).
What is the fourth term? Let n = 4,
a(4) = 30(1/2)^(4-1), or a(4) = 30(1/2)^(3), or a(4) = 30(1/8) = 30/8, or, in reduced form,
a(4) = 15/4.
Solutions
We know that <span>the mass of a tiger at a zoo is 235 kilograms. Randy's cat has a mass of 5,000 grams. To solve the problem we have to convert 235 kilograms into grams.
</span>235 kilograms = 235000 grams
<span>Randy's cat has a mass of 5,000 grams
</span>
Randy's cat = <span>5,000 grams
</span>
Tiger = <span>235000 grams
</span>
Our next step is to subtract 5000 from <span>235000 grams
</span>
235000 grams - <span>5000 grams = 230000
</span>
Answer = <span>230000 grams </span>
