1 5/8 = 13/8
(13/8)/14 = .116 or 13/112
.116 (26) = 3.016 or 169/56

Answer:

  3 1/56 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, you're to assume that the amount of food is supposed to be proportional to weight. If x is the amount of food for the 26-pound dog, then ...

  cups/weight = (1 5/8)/14 = x/26

Multiplying by 26 we have ...

  x = (26)(13/8)/14 = 338/112 . . . cups

  x = 3 1/56 cups ≈ 3.02 cups

About 3.02 cups of the same type of food should be fed to a 26-pound dog.

a(n) = a₁ + d(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n) + 2(1)
a(n) = 3 - 2n + 2
a(n) = -2n + 3 + 2
a(n) = -2n + 5
   a₁₄ = -2(14) + 5
   a₁₄ = -28 + 5
   a₁₄ = -23

The answer is C.

Tom [10]

Answer: The value of x is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

TO find the volume of a cube you cube any side length. so if the side  length is 6.

6^3 = 216

To find the surface area of a cube you will square one of the side lengths and multiply it by 6.

so the side length is 6 and 6 squared is 36

36*6 = 216
