Given, 18 pumps----2170 tonnes----10*7 hrs.
So, 16 pumps-------2170 tonnes----10*7*18/16 hrs.
And, 16 pumps-------1736 tonnes----10*7*(18/16)*(1736/2170)hrs. = 63 hrs.
So, no. of days req.= 63/9 = 7 days
X = 5 or x = 13.

The common ratio of both the formulas is 3 and 2. The first formula is explicit and the second is the recursive formula.
<h3>What is the recursive rule?</h3>
A rule is defined such that its definition includes itself.
1.
The given sequence is
-2, -6, -18, -54
Common ratio ;
r = -6 / -2 = 3

This given formula is the explicit formula.
2.
The given sequence is
4, 8, 16, 32
Common ratio ;
r = 8 / 4 = 2

This given formula is the recursive formula.

Pretty sure it's 0, if you mean 2 to the power of 0
Answer:
0.485 lb
6.83 lb - 3.57 lb = 3.26 lb
3.26 lb - 0.35 lb = 2.91 lb
2.91 lb / 6 = 0.485 lb
