The frog's jump represent a geometric series.
The sum of finite geometric series can be solved using the equation:
Sn = ao ( (1-r^n)/(1-r) )

Plugging in the values,
S8 = 1 ( (1-2^8)/(1-2) )
S8 = 255

Therefore, after 8 hops, the frog will have traveled 255 inches

<h3>3 Answers:</h3>
  • Choice A.  (10, -1)
  • Choice B.  (-8, 9)
  • Choice D.  (6, -3)

===================================

Explanation:

If we plug the coordinates of point A into the inequality, then we get

x+y > -2

10 + (-1) > -2

9 > -2

That last inequality is a true statement since 9 is to the right of -2 on the number line. That means (10,-1) is a solution. Choice A is one of the answers

Choices B and D are also answers for similar reasons.

Something like choice C is not a solution because

x+y > -2

-1+(-9) > -2

-10 > -2

which is false

You should find that choice E is false as well.

---------------------

If you graphed the inequality and all of the points mentioned (see below), then you can visually confirm the answers. Notice how points A, B and D are in the blue shaded region which is the solution set.

The point E on the boundary does not count as a solution. This is due to the lack of "or equal to" portion of the inequality sign. That visually shows point E is not a solution. Point C isn't a solution either as it's nowhere near the blue shaded region.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

x + y = 50 (1) and 2x + 3y = 115 (2); x = 35, y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x represents the number of 2 point shots and y represents the number of 3 point shots. If the total number of shots is 50, then x + y = 50 (1)

Also, the total 2 point shots is number of 2 point shots × points per shot = 2x and the total 3 point shots is number of 3 point shots × points per shot =  3y. Since the total number of points is 115, then

2x + 3y = 115 (2)

So, the system of equations are

x + y = 50 (1) and 2x + 3y = 115 (2)

We can solve for x and y by substituting x = 50 - y into (2)

So, 2(50 - y) + 3y = 115

100 - 2y + 3y = 115

100 + y = 115

y = 115 - 100

y = 15

So, x = 50 - y

= 50 - 15

= 35

How many grams are 2.7x10-^4 grams
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

0,00027 grams!

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a scientific notation problem.

When a number is followed by a 10^{-1}, it means that said number has one zero at the beginning.

In this case, the number is followed by 10^{-4}, so that means that 2.7 has four zeros at the beginning. So, 2.7x10^{-4} grams is equal to 0,00027 grams! (always the comma goes after the first zero).

4. Kristina is allowed to have a friend sleep over every 3rd weekend,
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

You must find the least common multiple of their schedules.

The numbers 3 and 2 are their own prime factors, so the least common multiple of 3 and 2 is 6.

Six weekends must pass until they can both have someone over on the same night.

The number line below shows that the first time their sleepovers coincide is Week 6.
