Answer:
My sister will swing the total distance = 40 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
On the first swing my sister travels a distance of 8 feet.
In every successive swing she travels 80% of the distance of the previous distance.
So the sequence formed by the distance traveled in every swing will be a geometric sequence.
First term of the sequence 'a' = 8 feet
common ratio 'r' = 0.80
Since this sequence is an infinite geometric sequence,
Sum of this sequence =
[Since r < 1]
= 
=
= 40 feet
Therefore, my sister will cover the total distance = 40 feet
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
1, Extand line y for which y intercepts CB at point K
2, line y is a straight line and thus KAB=180-110=70
3, AY parallel to CX thus angle CKA=130 which is a alternative angle of BCX (if you can't see then try to extend CX as well
4,BKA=180-130=50 as BC is a straight line
5, the sum of interior angle of a triangle is 180, and we have KAB and BKA, thus angle ABC = 180-KAB-BKA=180-70-50=60
