I'm sorry, but I'm a bit confused on what you're trying to ask. Could you please clarify?
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
rectangle = 8x9 = 72
1/3 0f 72 = 24 (72-24= 48)
1/8 of 48 =6 48-6 =42
red-----24
green-----6
unpainted-----42
24+6+42+=72
You have the correct answer. It is choice B) -1/4
=======================================================
Explanation:
This is because we're adding -1/4 to each term to get the next one. In other words, we're subtracting 1/4 from each term to get the next one.
- term2 = term1+(d) = 1/2 + (-1/4) = 1/2 - 1/4 = 2/4 - 1/4 = 1/4
- term3 = term2+(d) = 1/4 + (-1/4) = 1/4 - 1/4 = 0
- term4 = term3+(d) = 0 + (-1/4) = 0 - 1/4 = -1/4
- term5 = term4+(d) = -1/4 + (-1/4) = -2/4 = -1/2
and so on.
----------
To find the common difference, all we have to do is subtract any term from its previous one.
For example:
d = (term2) - (term1)
d = (1/4) - (1/2)
d = (1/4) - (2/4)
d = (1-2)/4
d = -1/4
The order of subtraction matters, so we cannot say d = term1-term2.
Given :
Abraham has visited 10 countries already. He has a goal of visiting at least 50 countries.
He plans to achieve this goal by visiting 5 new countries per year (y) for the next several years.
To Find :
Which inequality and solution shows the amount of years that it will take for Abraham to meet his goal.
Solution :
Let, after x years Abraham visited y countries.
It is mathematically given as :
Now, it is given that his goal is minimum of 50 countries.
So,
Therefore, minimum years required to meet his goals are 8.
Hence, this is the required solution.
