bearing in mind that an explicit form is simply the sequence written as a function of some variables, so we simply simplify and add like-terms.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
no, he is not. He literally added the numerators and the denominators. When ur adding fractions with the same denominator, u just add the numerators and keep the same denominator.

3/8 of a pizza.
If you divide each pizza into eight parts, each member would receive 1/8 of one pizza. Since there are three pizzas, each member would receive three 1/8 of a pizza, or 3/8.
You can prove this answer by multiplying 3/8 by 8, to get 24/8 simplified to 3.
After every drop,the ball bounces to half it's previous height. With that understood.
1st drop -The ball drops 10m
1st bounce - 5m up
2nd drop - 5m down
2nd bounce - 2.5m up
3rd drop - 2.5m down
3rd bounce - 1.25m up
4th drop - 1.25m down
4th bounce - 0.625m up
5th/last drop - 0.625m down
To find the total vertical distance, you add them all.
10+5+5+2.5+2.5+1.25+1.25+0.625+0.625
=29.25m travelled in all.
