Answer:

Sachet town is 12km from the airport

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the distance from sachet town to the airport.

This can be calculated by referring to a diagrammatic representation. Please check attached file.

Let’s proceed with the calculations however.

From the question, we can see that we have formed a Right angled triangle from the diagram and we need to calculate the distance x.

Mathematically;

x^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

x^2 = 20^2 - 16^2

x^2 = 400 - 256

x^2 = 144

x = sq.rt of 144

x = 12km

Can somebody prove this mathmatical induction?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1 step:

n=1, then

\sum \limits_{j=1}^1 2^j=2^1=2\\ \\2(2^1-1)=2(2-1)=2\cdot 1=2

So, for j=1 this statement is true

2 step:

Assume that for n=k the following statement is true

\sum \limits_{j=1}^k2^j=2(2^k-1)

3 step:

Check for n=k+1 whether the statement

\sum \limits_{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=2(2^{k+1}-1)

is true.

Start with the left side:

\sum \limits _{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=\sum \limits _{j=1}^k2^j+2^{k+1}\ \ (\ast)

According to the 2nd step,

\sum \limits_{j=1}^k2^j=2(2^k-1)

Substitute it into the \ast

\sum \limits _{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=\sum \limits _{j=1}^k2^j+2^{k+1}=2(2^k-1)+2^{k+1}=2^{k+1}-2+2^{k+1}=2\cdot 2^{k+1}-2=2^{k+2}-2=2(2^{k+1}-1)

So, you have proved the initial statement

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Apple crisp has 10 grams of sugar per serving.  

Greek frozen yogurt has 5grams of sugar per serving.

The recipe with the least amount of sugar per serving is the Greek frozen yogurt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to divide the amount of grams of sugar by the number of servings for each case.

Apple crisp: 80 grams ÷8 servings =80 /8 = 10 grams of sugar per serving.

Greek frozen yogurt: 60 grams ÷12 servings =60 /12 = 5 grams of sugar per serving.

So, in conclusion:

Apple crisp has 10 grams of sugar per serving.  

Greek frozen yogurt has 5grams of sugar per serving.

The recipe with the least amount of sugar per serving is the Greek frozen yogurt, because 5<10.
