Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of different ways that division of fractions can be done.

1) "invert and multiply"

$\dfrac{14}{15}\div\dfrac{7}{5}=\dfrac{14}{15}\times\dfrac{5}{7}\\\\=\dfrac{14}{7}\times\dfrac{5}{15}=\boxed{\dfrac{2}{3}}$

2) use the numerators when the denominators are the same

$\dfrac{14}{15}\div\dfrac{7}{5}=\dfrac{14}{15}\div\dfrac{21}{15}\\\\=\dfrac{14}{21}=\boxed{\dfrac{2}{3}}$

Rachel mows 5 lawns in 8 hours. At this rate how many lawns can she mow in 40 hour?

posledela

We can think of this as an equality

5 Lawns = 8 Hours

If she needs 40 hours, you can multiply 8 hours by 5 to get 40, but now it's not balanced. So, you need to multiply 5 to the other side too so:

5 x (5) = 8 x (5)

Therefore she mows 25 Lawns in 40 Hours

Find the explicit formula for the sequence? -1,4,-16,64......

Ede4ka [16]

The explicit formula for given sequence is: $a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence is:

-1,4,-16,64.....

We can see that there is no same difference between consecutive terms so we will find common ratio to see if it is a geometric sequence.

Here

$a_1 = -1\\a_2 = 4\\a_3 = -16\\a_4 = 64\\r = \frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{4}{-1} = -4\\r = \frac{a_3}{a_2} = \frac{-16}{4} = -4$

The explicit formula for geometric sequence is:

$a_n = a_1r^{n-1}$

Putting the values of r and a1

$a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}$

Hence

The explicit formula for given sequence is: $a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}$

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The kite is symmetrical about the long axis, so the height of each of the triangles is half the overall width of the kite. (10 cm/2 = 5 cm)

The height of the triangle <em>h</em> is 5 cm.
